Slipperfoot, Chanteuse Noire and Indian Ballet look the three to concentrate on and Slipperfoot is taken to show them a clean pair of heels. Indian Ballet represents Michael Jarvis who had a winner at nearby Thirsk on Tuesday, and after respectable efforts at Folkestone and Wolverhampton he must have a chance in this weak affair. Chanteuse Nori was an expensive purchase but has yet to justify the price tag despite running well on several occasions. Jeremy Noseda's War Chant filly was just ahead of Indian ballet last time and can repeat her supremacy over that rival. Slipperfoot has had fewer chances than her closest rivals and enjoys fast ground. She has been beaten less than a length in her last two starts and deserves to pick up a race. The yard had a winner at Newmarket recently and this would represent a popular local success. Slipperfoot can prove too quick for her rivals.
