This could be a good opportunity for PAINT , who is open to plenty of improvement now she steps up in trip and will be hard to peg back if adapting to a firmer surface. Golden Footsteps makes some appeal on these terms but has to quickly banish the memory of a poor effort last time out, so the consistent Give Em A Clump gets the nod as the biggest threat on this occasion.
