RIBBLE RADIANT finished to good effect when making a successful debut at Beverley 115 days ago and the form has proved solid, so she's worth a chance to maintain her unbeaten record for all that the absence is a slight concern. Last Applause looks a big threat after a promising start and newcomer One More Bottle is one to note on pedigree.
