Riversway is progressing nicely having scored at Doncaster and completing a double at Chester. However, she was receiving 13lb when beating May Blossom narrowly in the former event so the latter has the edge at the weights despite scoring at Beverley last weekend. FRISKY could have the beating of the pair of them having finished fourth in that Chester race when favourite. A winner at Leicester in July, she met all sorts of trouble on the Roodee and can gain compensation. Lullaby Bay found Listed company too much for her at Ayr after completing a hat-trick and this is more her level and Mattice looks a major threat after following a victory in a Doncaster Class 3 handicap with a short-head defeat in a lucrative handicap at Newcastle.
