There are a couple of these dropping down to very lenient marks, High Voltage and Kissing Lights, both should be considered for each-way purposes, but Yomalo is our choice to reach the winners berth. The selection rarely gets beaten far and once again ran up to her best when third to Presto Shinko in a well contested event at Windsor. She appears to be up against mainly out of form runners here and must hold strong claims. Kissing Lights looked a very decent prospect last season and having started off a mark of 100 is now down to a much more realistic figure. It would be no surprise to see her involved in the finish. High Voltage was successful off a six higher mark last season and with a seven pound claimer on board as well, he looks to be very nicely weighted this afternoon. Tsaroxy can also go well of a very low weight, but Yomalo is the most consistent runner in the line up and she gets our vote.
