Sky Of Stars sets a fairly solid benchmark for Olly Murphy, but he's risen sharply in the weights for those pair of successes at Stratford and Market Rasen and he might prove a shade vulnerable to a couple of the others, especially with some riders able to claim 10lb allowances. Hermosa Vaquera has proved herself over C&D in the past and she returned with a bang on the Flat at Lingfield late last month, so clearly comes into the reckoning. However, a chance is taken on the Samuel Drinkwater trained RIF RAFTOU. She has shown some ability in finishing in the places over longer trips at Worcester (held up), and if ridden more positively over this shorter trip could well out perform her likely odds.
