Verdict
Blue Bahia has a good opportunity here a fortnight ago but came up well short and Lady Hester only posted a couple of modest efforts last year. RUTHERFORD also returns from a lay-off but she went close at Leicester in October and Kevin Ryan’s filly may prove good enough in this. Play With Me is related to a handful of winners and preferred to Dusky Maid of the newcomers.
