This looks one for market watcher. Free Thought should tract support despite making errors that put paid to her chances over the minimum here last month but winning point-to-pointer Brandy Harbour was beaten a long way over the track and trip the same day. Lucailem comes out best of those with an official rating though that isn't saying much while It's All Gucci was staying on over this trip at Fairyhouse when falling at the second last. PICTURES OF HOME hasn't shown much but will be suited by stepping up from the minimum and has a stayer's pedigree so get the vote in a poor contest.
