Verdict
A debut winner at Kempton, Eevilynn Drew never looked like catching the winner at Chelmsford last time and Dashing Roger was still beaten six lengths when second at Brighton in October. Time Voyage also failed to get to grips with the winner at Newcastle and Take Me To The Sky is preferred having undergone wind surgery since August when going close in both outings over 7f. But Archie Watson has maintained an impressive strike rate on the all-weather with his two-year-old runners this year and RHUBARB BIKINI is taken to improve fitted with headgear today having finished runner-up over today’s trip at Chelmsford on his earlier debut.
