Verdict
Tim Easterby has won this twice in the past five years and can strike again with LAST BID. This speedily-bred filly has always been well regarded and completed a double in a similar event over this C&D a couple of weeks ago when Kool Henry and Rent Free occupied the places. The runner-up is 2lb better off and must have a fair chance of reversing the form but the latter has something to find with the front two. It's a big surprise that Richard Fahey has yet to find a race for One Kool Dude, whose close third to a subsequent Listed and Group 2 winner at Doncaster is comfortably the best form on view and perhaps this return to the minimum trip will bring about a change in fortune. Risky Art, who looked a nice prospect on her debut at Carlisle, flopped at Thirsk and can't have been right.
