Harry Derham has his string in good order and fields an appealing candidate here in BARRABOOL, who couldn't match strides with Tour Ovalie in a Taunton novice but she has a good chance of reversing those placings on these revised terms now pitched into a handicap, while the forecast quicker ground may also aid her cause. There are dangers aplenty, with Northern Air feared most ahead of the hat-trick seeking Surrey Belle and Walkadina.
