FormscanBy Tom Weekes - QUORNOFAMONDAY has been a beaten favourite on each of his last three runs but has nonetheless run consistently well and is suited by conditions. Beaten a half-length by veteran Glenabo Bridge in November, he meets that rivals on identical terms today but is seven years younger so obviously has more scope for progression. Verbal Sparring is a 14-race maiden who ran well in a recent course handicap although steps up to this distance for the first time. Gold Haven is forgiven a recent pulled up run five days ago as she lost both front shoes in-running but nonetheless blinkers are left off today and she is a 17-race maiden. Keith Donoghue has sided with the selection over Brownstone, which has been running well but needs to improve to win. Little Token has some place claims.
