A trappy handicap and it may pay to side with lightly-raced 4-y-o RUSSIAN CRESCENDO who had won 2 of her first 3 starts prior to looking rusty on reappearance at Southwell in April. She's worth another chance following a break and is preferred to Paggane who shaped with encouragement on stable debut and could have more to offer upped in trip under a valuable claiming jockey, while Pique' could be in the mix if recapturing last season's form, with the step back up in trip set to suit.
