Otago has the form to figure in this having been dropped a pound since his fourth at Windsor. Capla Spirit is preferred to Lady Quickstep and has place claims but Agent Shiftwell and Intimate Moment need to stage a revival and Batchelor Boy generally reserves his best for Wolverhampton. POETS DANCE wasn’t helped by a wide draw when joint favourite at Windsor having run well earlier at Newmarket. If Pat Cosgrave can find her some cover here, she should recoup losses.
