Improving 3-y-o who made it 3 wins from his last 4 starts when landing 7-runner C&D handicap 10 days ago, edging ahead halfway and just holding on. Possibilities again for all this rates tougher under a penalty.

BENGURION has impressed in landing each of her 2 starts on all-weather, displaying a willing attitude when defying a penalty on return to action at Kempton (7f) 3 weeks ago. She earns the vote now handicapping in the hope she proves as effective on turf. Pals Battalion and the thriving Mr Irrelevant are others to consider.
