Verdict
CARLY BAY is the selection in the nightcap with Monsieur and It's Rumoured the others to catch the eye. The mare is particularly suited with give underfoot and while she hasn't got her head infront of late, her most recent outing at Fontwell suggested that she wouldn't be too far away from correcting that statistic. Monsieur is exposed as plating class but is always dangerous if granted a soft lead. The drop in trip should help. It's Rumoured kept on well to take a similar contest at the track last month. The handicapper has only given a 7lb rise for the success. Southern Exit has bits and pieces of novice form that entitle him to go close. Rosoff had proven form in the mud in Ireland so a watch of the market is advised. Misbehaviour is relatively consistent but has attracted the handicapper's wrath as a consequence. Cragwell Suas represents a yard in form though could be entitled to need this first run following absence. A difficult puzzle for the punters to solve and we take Carly Bay to minimum stakes.
