Pink Ribbon and ATTAIN clashed here recently in a race won by Music Major. The selection was 3L behind today's rival but is 4lb better off and was returning from a break. A bold effort since over 1m4f suggests the veteran retains ability and that he has indeed improved for the run. Pink Ribbon has scored since at Wolverhampton and escapes a penalty. The pair have the pick of the recent form in this and make more appeal than Ingleby Spring who would appear better suited to slower ground. Genuine Approval, Luxford and Yogiyogiyogi would be interesting if attracting support, but Miss Minuty may be a bigger danger. The topweight is dropped significantly in grade and that could be a precursor to an improved effort.
