7.26 - The Coral On TV Maiden Stayers Trophy - heat 1 - 575m. Droopys Bianca lacks a yard of middle pace but finishes to some effect and has a good draw to work from on the rails, as Fast Usain in trap 2 in likely to move middle. However, Ardmayle Haulage should also make use of a nce plot in trap 6. He had no answer to the classy Farloe Titan over C & D on Friday, but meets nothing of that calibre here. He shows good early pace and will attempt to make all. Ex-Romford trainer Kim Marlow would love to land this at her old haunt.
7.58 - The Coral On TV Maiden Stayers Trophy - heat 2. Bubbly Cruiser in trap 1 has been in the wars recently, being unable to secure a clear run, and with quick starters outside him tonight this may be the case again. Of the three wide seeds, Quivers Music appeals most as the leader out wide, but Ashmar Susie has the pingers trap 3, and Ken Tester's bitch moves well round here, as shown in a 24.37 clocking over 400m in a trial, and recorded 35.90 when beaten four lengths by Adageo over C & D. She is approaching 18 weeks out of season, and she will do for me.
8.28 - The Coral On TV Maiden Stayers Trophy - heat 3. Jim Reynolds' Do It Blackie was impressive when slamming Lolos Schillagi by four lengths in a calculated 35.93, and with San Marco in trap 2 he should get a lovely run on the first circuit and build up a winning lead. The step up to six bends looks to be what the doctor ordered, and this son of Tucks Mein can make it two from two over the trip. San Marco can run on for second to qualify for Friday's final.
