7/2

Good second of 10 in handicap (17/2) at Bath (8f, soft) 16 days ago. Repeat of that would put him in the picture.

33/1

33/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Brighton (9.9f, good) 13 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Forecasts

Mayz (10/3), Eye Of The Water (7/2), Believe You Me (4/1), Khangai (4/1), Glencalvie (11/2), Enzos Angel (7/1), Rose Fandango (10/1), Long Call (33/1), Flame Of Kodiac (66/1)

The vote goes to MAYZ, who put in good late work when second off this mark at Brighton recently and the return to a stiffer track will be in her favour. Eye of The Water has to be feared on the back of his solid Bath effort last time and he is second choice. Rose Fandango could have a part to play, particularly if the going is good or faster but Enzos Angel, though respected on the basis of his all-weather form, has a bit to prove back on turf.
