Verdict
Maylah won a couple of classified races last month while Villalobos finished runner-up in a classified event at Ffos Las back in July. Hellavapace found one too good at Brighton last time while Tara is another with a shout after placing at Kempton. CATCH MY BREATH ran below par in a first-tine visor last week but the usual cheekpieces are back on today and he gets the vote having won a division of this off a similar mark last year.
