Verdict
Goldmadchen won a division of this in 2014 and 2015 and was partnered by Simon Walker on the latter occasion. Serena Brotherton gets the leg up on the veteran Giant Sequoia while Sweeping Rock could go well under Thomas Greatrex. Miss Macchiato was runner-up at Southwell on her penultimate start but the consistent FRIVOLOUS PRINCE was placed again when runner-up at Lingfield a couple of days ago and, with today’s amateur taking 5lb off his back, gets the nod.
