Queen Aggie is starting to come down the weights but her trainer also saddles the in-form My Own Way Home. The latter may be high enough in the weights now, however, having only managed third when bidding for a four-timer at Salisbury and she will surely to struggle to confirm July's course and distance running with ABATED on 7lb better terms. Roger Charlton's filly was beaten less than a length on that occasion and is far less exposed. She gets the vote though Ginzan and Edged Out should run their race again but Finesse finished behind Queen Aggie at Brighton.
