Between The Sheets would probably be the form pick but she was engaged in the 6.00 here last night. In her possible absence, MOT AND THE MESSER gets the nod having run green on debut at Haydock. Shaladar has shown some ability while the Johnston newcomer Boondoggle is worth a market check, though is bred for further.
