6/4

11/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 14 days ago by 3½ lengths from Al Simmo. Had plenty to spare last time and is worth chancing to follow up.

Forecasts

Another Romance (6/4), Espressoo (9/2), Al Simmo (9/2), Commandment (8/1), International Girl (9/1), Run This Way (12/1), Anadora (22/1), Princess Olly (28/1)

ANOTHER ROMANCE quickened up in taking style when scoring at Salisbury a fortnight ago and, despite being 9 lb worse off at the weights with Al Simmo, gets the nod to uphold the form and go in again. Commandment, who scored over C&D earlier in the season, is also worthy of consideration despite arriving on the back of a tame effort.
