Verdict

Easy Wincanton scorer PASSING KATE is thriving under the tutelage of Matt Sheppard this term and despite being 3 lb out of the handicap still looks very much the way to go. Amelia's Dance is in very good nick herself but could have to play bridesmaid once more, with Notnowlinda appealing as the pick of the rest for minor honours back in this sphere.
