In depth
Verdict
Floppie Disk has shown plenty of dash in her two racecourse visits to date, but she may just set the race up for something else again today. Naughty Girl is learning her trade quickly and if she continues to improve, she will be hard to beat in what is a big drop in class from her last outing. Hurricane Alan is an unknown quantity so Arran Pilot is feared most out of the rest.
