Hearmenow just got the better of Burmese Whisper in a seller here last time with Priory well beaten in fourth. But ALSHAQEE won a maiden at Chelmsford recently and that looks stronger form. The Haggas colt drops in class for this and looks likely to make another bold bid. The remainder have shown little of late though Zeeoneandonly does have an outside chance at the weights if back to her best.
