GRAND DUCHESS OLGA was always doing enough when going in by a neck over 1m6f at Wolverhampton last month and the assessor may have been kind to only put her up 2lb. With a previous C&D victory to her name, she could prove hard to beat once again. Sullivan Bay made the frame at this venue when last seen on the Flat and has since undergone a wind operation, so he is one to watch out for. Stretch is next best. |
Star Legend was a winner over 1m6f here in March, but didn't back that up over 2m, given another chance in a small field here can go well. C&D winner Sullivan Bay has been placed in his last three starts on AW since that win is another on the shortlist. It's GRAND DUCHESS OLGA who makes most appeal, another with good course form, won last time out at Wolverhampton, has been bumped just 2lb for that and has Chloe Lyons on board again here. |
