BUXOM gives weight all round and only won an ordinary Fontwell bumper on debut. However, the manner of the success, making all and staying on well, impressed and there looks to be plenty more to come for a yard with a good record in these contests. Petrarchick ran a cracker first time up in a well-contested Hereford bumper when totally unfancied in the market. Her yard only has had one winner to date so she may well go off at a very workable price here. Whichever wasn't too find behind Petrarchick in that Hereford race and she should get involved too whilst it's too early to write off Courting Whitney. She has slipped up and been tailed off the last twice but her Worcester debut in June indicated a certain amount of future promise.
