A bad maiden that can go to SNOWY INDIAN although Bianca Capello and Ludwigshafen have lines of form that entitle them to consideration. Snowy Indian failed to get her head infront for Sir Michael Stoute and it is now Marco Botti's job to get that maiden under her belt. She has ran with a degree of credit against better maidens at Dunstall Park and one assumes that the paddocks await if the Italian handler can work the oracle. Bianca Capello is a rare runner at this time of year for James Fanshawe. She does have the benefit of a recent run at Kempton although the visor that accompanied it is no longer present. Irish raider, Ludwigshafen, has placed at some of the better Irish tracks in the past so watch the market to see if any euros are being invested. Lady Aspen looks fated to finish in the frame though does run up to her BHA rating. Marie Tempest was cast out of the Barry Hills stable at an early juncture and has spurned easier opportunities than this. Amber Moon has gone close in two classified stakes. She might be worth watching when returned to the Southwell fibersand but this is such a weak event that even her lowly BHA rating is one of the better on offer. Snowy Indian is no more than a token pick in a race that is of limited betting appeal.
