Trainer Mick Appleby can often improve horses taken from other stables and he appears to have done that again with OMINOTAGO. The mare travelled well at Southwell last time and put the race to bed with two furlongs to go and while it's unclear how strong that form is, he ran well at this course the time before. The suspicion is he's still well-handicapped. Monna Valley is a consistent type who gets on well with this rider and any market support for Start Seven could prove significant. 1. Ominotago 2.
