Verdict
It was heavy ground when AUNTIE KATHRYN scored at Yarmouth last week. Her four-length victory suggests she can defy a penalty and she makes more appeal than September's Ffos Las winner Bitter Lemon. Steel Rain also arrives on the back of a victory but that came over 6f at Bath and Dancing Maite tends to save his best for the Polytrack these days. Steel City Boy has won twice on Turf but both came over a longer trip at Warwick and El Dececy was engaged to run at Southwell yesterday.
