Patanjali might well have scored at Lingfield recently granted a clearer passage and should now be able to go very close here. Life Of Luxury showed a bit more on handicap bow recently and is worth noting again while Zebelini and, to a lesser extent, Dark Confidant are not without their merits. BRIDAL PATH was involved in a blanket finish here last month and while not matching that effort on turf since, she shouldn't be underestimated returned to the AW and with a positive jockey booking.
