SNOW LEOPARDESS, winner of a Listed bumper at Gowran in September, made a perfectly respectable debut over timber when third to the more experienced Dusky Legend in a Class 2 event at Newbury. She easily has the beating of the penalised Same Circus on that form and will know more today – Charlie Longsdon's four-year-old should be far too classy for these. Banjo Girl should be capable of better when she learns to settle but the others are hard to fancy.
