In depth
Verdict
The Crawford yard are always of interest on their Scottish raids so make a market note of Island Mahee and Moylass, both of whom make their respective debuts under Rules. Miss Batten is hard to assess at this stage and is another for a market check but we'll go with SHE'SASUPERMACK. Iain Jardine's mare showed notable improvement the last day when unfortunate not to finish closer and a repeat of that progression should see her involved with Bruce Lynn's 7lb claim a further attraction to her chance. Jessiemac and Jupiter's Way have form in the book to play a leading role and are preferred in that order as the Duncan inmate has a solid record at this venue.
