WHO KNOWS (3) finished second as favourite in the Winter Cup on the first day and is nicely placed over 1800m. She looks to have this field covered, and can go one better. Follow your money. BOZO (7) just battled as favourite in her last run at Trentham 6 weeks ago and has been close up in a Foxton trial since then. She is a progressive Winter performer, who hails from the astute Kevin Myers, and can bounce back and take out a race like this. CORK (2) failed to fire in the Winter Cup but did not have much luck from a wide gate. The extra furlong is key here, and she is worth another chance. RIVIERA REBEL (1) fought on gamely for seventh in the Winter Cup on the first day, and this race has always been his main target in this campaign. He would not be a shock winner. ROYAL VALOUR (5) was doing his best work late in the Winter Cup and will relish the extra 200m. He gets a big swing in his draw and is worth including in all combinations.
