Verdict
Barney Curley's NO COMPLAINING looked much improved on handicap debut and off just a 1lb higher can go one better. Still unexposed the filly is making just her third run of the season so with fitness and experience likely to bring about further improvement she looks the one to beat. Franki J looks the obvious danger after a comfortable win form a lowly rating two starts ago. Since then he's placed off this mark and is another open to improvement. Empress Leizu might be a good shout for each-way backers as the only course and distance winner in the line-up but No Complaining looks to be heading in the right direction.
