Verdict
Ruby Talullah is our selection with Fault and Kate The Great the alternatives. Nick Littmoden's charge makes a handicap debut off 69 today and to be fair to her, she ran far better than the bare form suggests on her last start in maiden company. Luck in running will be the main issue. Fault ran too badly to be true at Goodwood. He had looked useful in two successes over five furlongs. Kate The Great almost made a drop in grade count at Bath. She might be better over six but she will be staying on resolutely as they hit the final furlong. Predict beat the useful Talking Hands in a maiden at Wolverhampton. That form is solid although backers need to overlook a very public flop at Pontefract next time out. Red Cell doesn't appear to have progressed. Riflessione was understandably outclassed in the Super Sprint at Newbury. Agnes Love looks ordinary. Ruby Tallulah is selected.
