Joe Williamson could afford to ease down LONE STAR in the closing stages when winning a qualifier for this Series Final last time. She should go close again, despite a 10lb hike in the weights. Maimie's Magic is upped in distance bidding for a hat-trick having narrowly beaten Millarville at Kelso and subsequent winner Ravenscar at Newcastle before that while both Poppy Rose and Spot On Soph have plenty to find with the selection. Latino Fling could go well having won a further three times since landing this contest last year and she is preferred to stablemate Nora The Xplorer.
