Verdict
This is a tricky start to proceedings as a few of these are likely to show improvement now going handicapping. Frankie teams up with James Fanshawe's Green Monkey, who ran his best race so far at Leicester last time. Blessing Box is also lightly raced and was second at Lingfield in October but SHAMIANA has her sights lowered and showed enough speed at Chester to suggest the drop in trip is in her favour. She gets the nod though Alhaarth Beauty and The Manx Missile were both sent off favourite last time while Pearl Noir only found one too good in four of his eight starts as a juvenile. Secret Advice won over 5f at Carlisle last week but a penalty could be a stumbling block here.
