SCOTTISH BOOGIE is taken to land the spoils with Landowner and Pictures others for the shortlist. The selection has raced on fast ground previously but there is plenty of encouragement on the dam side of the pedigree to suggest that today's surface will not be a problem. Landowner appears likely to set the fractions. This will be a good effort to give weight all around to unexposed rivals. Pictures is from a yard noted for their ability to farm handicaps. She has had three runs at relatively unfashionable tracks so the market is watched. Dormer Fleet was able to take full advantage of a good draw at Nottingham to win over six furlongs on soft ground. Things will not be so easy on this instance. Hellenio is a half-brother to Kootenay. Rated just 60; he receives lumps of weight from the market principals. Amno Dancer steps up in trip and has to be respected given the recent form of the Mark Tompkins stable. A trappy affair with the ground likely to play a major role in the destiny of it and for this reason, we are with Scottish Boogie.
