LIME DROP had plenty in hand again when scoring at Taunton 36 days ago and, despite going up a further 8 lb, she's an obvious choice to complete the four-timer in a race where the majority have a bit to prove. Fleeting Blue is a notable handicap debutante and Durragh still has few miles on the clock, so they're the pick of the opposition.
