Whaston, SINGORA LADY and Tour d'Amour are the trio to catch the eye here, with Singora Lady taken to come out on top. Whaston is not the most consistent type, but he tends to win one race a season, and he managed that at Ayr recently. He has been raised only 4lbs for that success but he is readily opposed here. Tour d'Amour is another who rarely visits the winners' enclosure, but a good performance here last time saw her double her winning tally. She is also hard to predict and is opposed. After running promisingly at Hamilton, Singora Lady showed real tenacity to score at Pontefract next time. A solid effort in defeat followed back at the same track, and Singora Lady looks the best bet in a trappy affair.
