None of these are currently acquiring the winning habit but MOLLY CAT rates an interesting contender on this first run for Neil Mulholland since leaving the Alan Swinbank yard. A chance needs to be taken from a fitness perspective but the best of her form for her previous yard puts the bumper winner in here with decent claims with Tom Queally a notable booking. Naady hasn't looked overly reliable to date but also merits shortlisting on the best of her efforts. She's a tricky one to call accurately. Wally's Wisdom showed more here last time and will be involved if able to back up that run whilst Fair Comment is exposed but did show a little more when last seen.
