Verdict
Robot Boy beat Teepee Time in an amateurs' race at Ayr last month, though neither have threatened in subsequent outings. Indian Pursuit won off a 2lb lower mark at Thirsk earlier in the year but there was cut in the ground on that occasion so a chance is taken on MARIETTA ROBUSTI. Third in a higher grade sprint at Newcastle last time, she was winning off an 8lb higher mark last year and Joanna Mason is one of the more accomplished amateurs. Le Manege Enchante is also partnered by a leading amateur in Serena Brotherton as he attempts to end a long losing run.
