A tricky contest for those wanting to 'get out'. Paul Midgley arrives mob-handed and it might be worth chancing a return to better form for his MERRY BANTER from this mark. Although held by the respected Liberatum at Wolverhampton last time, she acts well here and was beaten just ½L on her only run on heavy ground. Something Lucky has to be feared in opposition, while Imagine If is also on-song, Granny Roz is not ruled out and both Lydiate Lady and Socialites Red are also considered.
- Merry Banter
