It would be absolutely no surprise to see debutant Flying Feathers run a big race here for Jimmy Moffatt, though it will be a good effort to beat IDENTITY PARADE, while Oursininlaw is another for the short list. The Donald McCain-trained pick has come on steadily this spring and got it right with a resounding eight length success on fast ground at Uttoxeter earlier in the month. She has been put up 10lbs for that success officially, so a 7lb penalty for the win leaves her looking well in today and she is taken to score. Oursininlaw just got the better of the classy Oedipe at Fakenham last time over three miles and in doing so, proved that he handled fast ground. He also carries a penalty and is the danger today. Moffatt's other runner is Stolen Moments, who stays well, but would prefer slower ground to be at his best, while the market should be checked for an idea of any confidence behind the remainder and Identity Parade can show her face in front.
