Sad Times is more exposed than most of these and is probably best watched here so preference is for Little Hotpotch, who gets the vote ahead of Flying Lion. The last mentioned has disappointed thus far but Mick Channon's filly may do better now that she races on a fast surface for the first time. Neville Callaghan's Moist has only beaten one horse home in two starts so far but they have been in maidens and this represents a drop in class for the daughter of Mark Of Esteem. Feisty was well held on her debut and is difficult to evaluate, while Tumble Jill is another taking a big drop in class and cannot be discounted. The vote though goes to the John Jenkins-trained Little Hotpotch, who has admittedly finished last in both starts so far but was not beaten far on either occasion under testing conditions and there should be more to come on today's ground and dropped into this grade.
