MUTAAWID went some way to living up to his top-class pedigree when scoring easily at Newmarket and a 10lb rise may not be enough to stop him from going in again. Botanical must enter calculations on his first start in handicap company since finishing second in the John Smith's Cup last summer, while Irish raider Akecheta caught the eye when not getting a clear run and keeping on late in a valuable contest over a mile at the Curragh. Arriving here on a four-timer after ending last season in top form, Ashariba is of interest on her return, as are Rathgar and Defiance. |
Plenty to consider in an open race. The one to appeal most is AKECHETA, who is fairly weighted on her best form and (if anything) promises to be suited by the return to 1m2f. This Irish raider may be the answer. Defiance hails from a yard with a good record in this and which can ready a long-absent horse so, having run well on last season's reappearance over C&D, this 4yo is a much-respected main danger. Botanical has plenty going for him too and may be best of the rest, ahead of Rathgar, Mutaawid and Ecureuil Secret. |

Below-par on AW last time, though possibly did too much too soon and may be better on grass; big form chance on such as last July's second in top York handicap; cheekpieces now. |
