In depth
Verdict
Successful on Polytrack at the start of the year, Mistress Nellie opened her account on Turf at Windsor in August and is only 3lb higher. Born Leader is 0-10 but has finished second three times and was also placed over course and distance last year. Lady Alexandria could be interesting is first-time blinkers as she steps into handicap company and is upped in trip but it was interesting to see CHEESE AND WINE attract market support over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last month. She wasn’t beaten far and is 6lb lower here taking into account her rider’s claim.
