RED DANAHER has produced his best form over further, scoring over 3m1f at Catterick in January. However, this is a poor contest and he can make his stamina count. Sory has yet to win in 13 starts over a variety of distances while Spin The Coin has shown nothing since arriving from Ireland. Frightened Rabbit scored at Newcastle at this time a year ago though hasn't shown much subsequently while Once An Angel has been beaten a long way in all three starts over timber. It's difficult to side with Special Princess, who has been in very poor form.
