Irish trainer sends one horse on the 900-mile round trip to Carlisle on Sunday

The Mark Johnston trained Austin Powers looked a progressive type before flopping on unsuitable soft ground over this course and distance last month. Natajack has been unable to take advantage of a sliding mark of late but should run his race once again. A chance is taken on the really well treated ALEXANDRAKOLLONTAI who finished fourth here four days ago. She is a twelve time winner and is now seven pounds lower than her last victory which came a year ago. She tends to get outpaced a touch early doors so the mile test should be ideal again for her today and we expect her to mow down her rivals late on.
