Verdict
Colony Queen has won 10 times on the Flat but needs to improve on what she’s shown so far over timber. East End Girl, also a winner on the level, jumped poorly at Fakenham but is surely capable of better. Eel Pie Island won a bumper on her racecourse debut but ran only once after and finished tailed off. MINNIEMUM was a bit disappointing on her final start in a bumper but she’d shown ability in two earlier runs and is likely to know what’s required. My Little Toni has plenty of experience but is penalised for winning a small race at Sedgefield in September.
