MARGOT MINE can follow up with Turkish Sultan and Moorside Diamond likely to prove the most pertinent dangers. A winner of an apprentices' race at Great Leighs, Margot Mine may be ordinary but she won with a degree of authority and if in the mood again, the ex-Italian filly finds herself at the right end of the handicap. Turkish Sultan should have won far more races than a record of 1-32 suggests. Milton Bradley's charge has finished close up at big odds in his two most recent starts. Anduril wins in his turn though is weighted up to his best. Moorside Diamond continues in blinkers though has been absent from the track. Lights Of Vegas was once rated in the high 70's when with Brian Meehan and now finds himself off 48 within the space of a year-and-a-half. Zazous and Goose Green are perfectly capable on their day although neither have been in particularly great form. Pembo landed a seller at 66/1 and was far from disgraced in a recent classified stakes at the track. Margot Mine is the call off a very low racing weight.
