A real rogues gallery as none of these are noted for reliability; Extrasolar and Robben Rainbow certainly fit that profile but could figure strongly if they were to consent to running to the best of their remaining ability. While Talk Now was well backed on her stable debut at Ayr 17 days ago and it will be interesting to see if there is any confidence behind her making amends for a near miss now she's up to 7f. However, there was a lot to like about the return effort posted by DESTINATION AIM here last time and the old boy could well have one last hurrah within his grasp from a very lenient mark in comparison to his past exploits. False Id is also feared.
