BLACK VALE won a seller over track and trip last week beating runner-up Kodafine a couple of lengths. Coiste Bodhar, El Duque and Intense Feeling finished further behind and, as there's no good reason why they should turn the tables with Phil McEntee's charge, he gets the vote to go in again. Calamity Jane has shown nothing so far which leaves Skinny Love looking the main danger on her earlier victory here in plating company.
