SALLY FRIDAY is making steady if unspectacular progress. A repeat of her latest third at Salisbury should see her thereabouts at the finish and Peter Winkworth's filly gets a tentative vote. It's a bit of a worry that O Ma Lad's best effort came over a mile but it did come on the Polytrack and he's expected to figure, while there should be more to come from The Calling Curlew. The remainder are hard to fancy with neither of Jim Boyle's newcomers standing out on breeding.
