Verdict
A TICKATICKATIMING just failed to catch the winner over track and trip on her first start since November and is taken go one better in this. Stowford finished runner-up in a point-to-point Flat race in March and debuts under Rules while Ami Bondhu is a likely improver. Buck Of Maine is a half-brother to a Listed hurdler in France and is preferred to Mikhaila of the newcomers.
