Blue Bahia showed promise over 5f in Ireland in the spring but she’s having her first start for Mark Johnston and has plenty to prove over this sort of trip. SIDEWINDER is having his first run on Polytrack and hasn’t raced since August but was only beaten half-a-length in a maiden auction over this distance at Leicester last time and a reproduction of that effort may well suffice. None of the others with experience have shown much so the market should be monitored with regards to newcomers Ay Ay, Duxbury and Rockalater.
