Pogue will be interesting if there's a market move, as the yard often introduce a good one here, and he looked useful when winning his point-to-point. But FINAWN BAWN bumped into a potentially smart one at Sandown when last seen and promises to be well served by this step up in trip. Diva Reconce gets a bit of weight and has been given time, so could easily leave behind what she's achieved to date.
