Formscan - Connections are taking a chance by dropping LADY MADELEINE (4) sharply in trip, with the aim of finally turning her string of runner-up finishes into a win. ALMAROMY (3) finished strongly on the all-weather track on August 27th and should play a leading role once again. MARQUES (7) ran better than his finishing position suggests last time and could have more to offer, while POLNOR (9) should not be written off after a single below-par effort in an interesting lucky last race.
