Verdict

A horror draw for Time N Time Again so it may be worth plumping for five-furlong specialist Lady Pekan to score in this contest. Time N Time Again has done little wrong this all-weather season and ran a very decent race to finish third to Quito at the track over six furlongs. Connections can't be happy at todays draw and we will look elsewhere. Lady Pekan is exposed at this grade and while she is unlikely to improve any further, she is a dual course and distance winner on the fibresand. The mare confirmed her well-being with an unlucky third at Lingfield and compensation awaits. Polish Emperor won a very weak sprint at Wolverhampton in November. The handicapper looks to have given him little respite and if anything, connections appear uncertain as to his best trip. Prince of Blues has better form over six furlongs while track specialist Far Note appears high enough in the handicap at the moment. Lady Pekan gets our vote.
