Verdict
Tashunka ran her best race to date over hurdles when second at Worcester in May. Kentford Mallard will probably run her race again and Maliboo should strip fitter for her third at Fakenham. Winter Getaway slips further down the ratings and blinkers are added but, after a staying on third at Warwick, it’s probably worth giving POGO I AM another try over this longer trip with Lorcan Murtagh good value for his 3lb claim. Davitt Road Glory is preferred to Martha Brae of the others.
