The opportunity is here for the smaller owner to pick off a big pot but there's nothing small about the reputation of Richard Hannon in this race and with the trainer seeking an eighth success, we will take him to wrest the spoils with LILBOURNE LASS. Veteran lightweight jockey, Jimmy Quinn has been booked for the mount aboard the daughter of Pastoral Pursuits and though a low draw isn't ideal, she's shown enough speed to realise two victories at Bath. Richard Fahey sends out five and Peniaphobia is probably the pick. He made hard work of landing the odds at Thirsk but he appears to have been trained with this race very much in mind. Lexington Rose went close in the Hilary Needler at Beverley and confirmed that favourable impression when making all at Musselburgh next time. Though looking somewhat exposed, Haikbidiac should also be respected from a yard that have won this race on two previous occasions.
