12/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1 when pulled up on Cork handicap debut in August but it's of some interest that her very much in-form leading stable is persevering with her. Needs a betting check faced with softer ground than previously on her return from a break.

Forecasts

Sean Mc (3/1), My Good Pal (7/2), Massabielle (7/1), Mount Shenshan (8/1), Run For Cover (10/1), Another Girl (10/1), Couldntmakeitup (10/1), Milesfromthehonk (12/1), Brown Boots (12/1), Light Her Up (20/1), Rajsalad (22/1), Koolio Kate (22/1), Sock It To Me (25/1), Deanery Charlie (28/1), Gamigin (28/1), Mastermind (33/1), Clever Court (40/1), Lejolicoeur Du Mou (40/1), Promo Queen (40/1), Catchyoulater (50/1), Keaner's Boy (66/1)

MY GOOD PAL is more consistent than many at this level and gets the vote for Gavin Cromwell. His stablemate Deanery Charlie rates a potential improver in handicaps and would firmly enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong. Mount Shenshan, a good second over fences last time, and Sean Mc also make the shortlist.
