Aubis Walk was only beaten a neck at Kelso on her reappearance having also found only one too good at Perth last spring but Champagnesocialist is probably the form pick on seconds at Tramore and Sedgefield, though has become expensive to follow. El Poppochapo has shown some promise in maidens in Ireland but Stuart Crawford also saddles OUR PINK LADY and it would be no surprise to see the daughter of Westerner take a big step forward from her hurdling debut at Catterick.
