Verdict
Stadium Talk won a maiden point at Ballinaboola in February but Titch Magee was pulled up in both starts between the flags. Looking As You Are was only beaten half-a-length at Southwell last month but Chance The Robin could give the form of QUEEN OF HINDSIGHT’s third here a boost earlier on the card and Donald McCain’s mare gets a nod.
