Not a contest to throw the mortgage at and we will take Miss Rideamight to confirm the promise of her recent run here and go one better, while Bowdlane Barb, Too Posh To Share and Shalati Princess could all get involved. the selection was a runner up here to Tanzanite Dawn in similar conditions three weeks ago when she got on well with her pilot. Although the run was nothing special this shouldn't take too much winning either and with some confidence from that latest effort plus bottomless ground in her favour we will side with the mare. Bowdlane Barb's only win came on soft ground at Uttoxeter, and we know how bad the ground can get there, so she also comes into calculations, particularly as she is in some sort of form as far as this contest is concerned. Too Posh To Share ran a stinker last time but should be a different proposition dropped back in trip and on ground that suits, and a repeat of her effort here in November would see her thereabouts. Of the others, Shalati Princess was thrashed here last time but looking back in her form we can see that she is capable on her day so is not totally discounted, but we prefer Miss Rideamight to do the business.
