After three seconds, Jonny Portman will be looking for a change of luck for his four-year-old Weather Babe. My Miss Lucy won by five lengths at Hereford last month while Fairey Delta was third, just behind Weather Babe, on her debut at Folkestone when Alder Mairi was back in fifth. MOONLIGHT MAGGIE is stoutly bred but caught the eye on her introduction at Taunton and will know more today. She gets a tentative vote, though newcomers Milanella and Taradrewe are worth watching if the market speaks in their favour.
