BETHPAGE showed improved form to make a winning handicap debut at Fontwell 23 days ago and, now up and running, she looks of interest again boasting a far less exposed profile than most. Flashy Boy is another worth monitoring now handicapping on return for his new yard and market confidence behind him would look significant. Deadlock and Mactavish complete the shortlist.
