Annsam won a maiden hurdle here back in May while Jembug Drummer landed a maiden race at Bangor earlier this month. Now Look At Me and Dream Machine are other maiden winners though the latter has been beaten in handicaps subsequently and AWEEMINIT is preferred. The latter ran well for third in Listed company at Kempton a week ago and a repeat of that effort should see Dan Skelton’s mare go close back at this level. Green Or Black won at Cartmel earlier but could only manage third off today’s higher mark last time and Zoffany Bay is preferred.
