Not the big field Blaydon Race Nursery of yesteryear, but a competitive race to solve nevertheless with the unbeaten filly Codicil likely to head the market. There can be no denying that she's a progressive sort, but this represents her toughest test yet and she hasn't anything in hand with a rather exposed looking Weellan on Beverley form from early August. Curiosity is a course winner, but concedes weight to all of his rivals, so preference is for one of the Mark Johnston trained runners. FOOTSTEPS FOREVER was following an upward curve prior to refusing to settle at Musselburgh latest, and the suspicion is that she might have been underestimated by the handicapper accordingly and she's undeniably bred to stay if electing to drop the anchor for Franny Norton.
