Whistling Senator may do better in a visor but has become very disappointing. Age may be catching up with Midnight Gold while Chestnut Ben will probably find a way of getting beaten again. Maid Of Silk has claims on her third over course and distance in May, however, while Flanagan has been placed in three of his five starts since the turn of the year and should be thereabouts again. BAIZICALLY drops in grade for this and, though it's along time since he got his head in front, is handicapped to close here. The Wee Midget still has scope over fences and looks best of the rest.
