A market check is advisable with the lightly raced pair of Try Cat and Lucy's Perfect from top yards in opposition as well as several other progressive performers but there may be more to come from CLU AGUS CAIL. She made a winning debut for Alison Batchelor in a maiden hurdle at Plumpton which was no more than she deserved on her Irish form and, with the first three pulling clear of the field, she looks capable of making further progress in handicap company. Am I Blue made a splash in winning her last two but needs to progress again on her return from a short break as does Detroit Red who must also cope with a shorter trip. Mayberry hails from a yard in great form and has the ability to go well whilst Tom Scudamore partners Daliarose in preference to Lucy's Perfect and she may improve for the fitting of a tongue tie.
