In depth
Verdict
WALK IN MY SHOES has had wind surgery since we last saw her and Jonjo O’Neill’s mare did show some fair form in the past at Warwick when the going was similarly testing. Galante De Romay hails from a stable in fair form and his rider is riding with plenty of confidence at present. Runasimi River hasn’t offered much this term but it would be folly to rule out any Peter Bowen runner around here while Shesupincourt is exposed as moderate though the mare is noteworthy in that she’ll be campaigning this afternoon off the proverbial featherweight.
