Verdict
Brady was disappointing for the second time in succession when beaten a head by Glenora Gale over C&D nine days ago. He's likely to be sent off a short-priced favourite again today but may be worth taking on with the progressive QUINSMAN. Choc Thornton's only booked ride, the latter had the form of his Bangor win franked by runner-up Clarion Call at the same track shortly after. Overpriced is a lot more exposed than her rivals and is likely to find a couple too good again while Cartmel second Logical Approach may also struggle but Prairie Hawk should improve on his fourth over 2m1f here last month.
