Litterale Ci was initially highly tried when arriving from France and has clearly not lived up to expectations given the market support she has attracted. This is another attractive opportunity for her but the risk reward ratio may not be generous enough to warrant support. CLOONACOOL has an excellent record in this company and has a top amateur on board. His latest run is all the more commendable as conditions would have been too quick and, despite topweight, he looks leniently treated. Nefyn Bay, representing a local yard who are in form and with a capable rider on board, looks best of the rest.
