5/4

2 wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (14f, 13/8) 12 days ago, well on top finish. This step up in trip should suit and looks the one to beat.

Forecasts

Pax Britannica (5/4), Ravenscar (10/3), Bobba Tee (4/1), Stonific (8/1), Clearance (12/1), Wemyss Point (33/1), Lopes Dancer (33/1)

PAX BRITANNICA is clearly a filly on the up and she's taken to complete the hat-trick having scored at Wolverhampton and Chelmsford in recent weeks. This step up in trip holds no fears and she may prove tough to beat. Clearance heads up the dangers on his first start on the AW for some time, while Bobba Tee and Ravenscar can fight out minor honours.
