Verdict
Lime Avenue beat Great Snow by five lengths over course and distance in February but the runner-up is now 4lb better off. ILOVETHENIGHTLIFE was conceding weight to the pair in that race and still in touch when blundering and unseating her rider four out. She went on to win at Doncaster and Newbury and her yard is ticking over nicely now. Vicki Vale won at Hereford and Taunton last season and Plenty Of Time is 2-3 around here while Space Voyage has had a run but a watching brief is advised on Good Look Charm and Ostrava Du Berlais.
