Verdict
Overnight Oats landed a double with last month’s defeat of the re-opposing Ben Hamrash. But that pair are hard to separate and ITHRA gets the vote making her handicap debut in first-time cheekpieces having found only the subsequent hat-trick winner Wild Side too good at Yarmouth earlier in the year.
