Verdict
LOULOU VUITTON was flattered by her proximity to the much higher rated La Estrella when runner-up here last month. But she has little to beat in this and won't get many better chances to finally lose her maiden tag. Josie's Dream has finished nearer last both on the Flat and over hurdles since scoring at Warwick last summer while Drummond has been tailed off in five subsequent starts over timber since making the frame on the level at Brighton. Samoset has been placed on the Turf but beaten out of sight at this track of late and multiple course winner Kingaroo continues his downward spiral and is now without a win since July 2012.
