Pundit pick: What A Tahoo

What A Tahoo arrives in form after landing a handicap at Ripon last time by a length off a lower mark at 5f, and she rates well clear of most rivals here on our assessment. With several in this race struggling for consistency of late, our selection is well placed to capitalise on current form. Wee Mary is the clear main danger after going very close here over this course just over a week ago, with Auntie Jo and Sixcor also in contention. What A Tahoo is our selection.
