Presenting Me is getting no nearer to breaking her duck and Lady Lectra has failed to build on her second at Newton Abbot in May so this looks a match between SOCIAL REALISM and Great Oak. Jonjo O'Neill's mare is conceding 3lb but didn't do a lot wrong when third to Faith Jicaro at Cartmel and can recapture the winning thread as her likely market rival didn't beat much at Hexham in June.
