FOREVER A LADY appreciated the drop down in trip last time to score over this C&D where, although the official distance was a neck, she never looked like being passed. The handicapper has only raised her 1lb in the weights so she has a great chance of following up here. Macs Blessings has been in contention at the finish in all four of his last starts, expect that to continue here, while Jacob's Pillow has shown enough evidence on his last two starts to suggest he can finish in the frame in this contest.
