This will not take too much winning and Auntie Kathleen should be the one to oblige, Touch Of Fate and Flintoff could be the ones to fill the places. Martin Pipe's six-year-old should be well suited by this trip having been a prolific performer in point to points. She will no doubt have been well prepared by the champion trainer, who looks to have found her an easy opportunity. Touch Of Fate is quite well regarded by the Richard Rowe yard and has shown a modicum of ability. Improvement should be forthcoming and he should be capable of taking a hand in the finish. Flintoff won a small bumper at Carlisle before being out classed at Aintree. He will no doubt have been well schooled and looks the pick of the remainder. So all in all a pretty modest affair and it should be a simple enough task for Auntie Kathleen.
