BILIDN just failed to make it six in a row when beaten a short-head at Ffos Las last time. Racing off the same mark here and back over 2m on fast ground, she can go in again. Montaser has scope for further progress stepping up in trip after scoring over 1m4f at Haydock in May while Western Prize got his head back in front when dropped into lesser company at Salisbury last time. Dark Ranger is another with something to prove at this level though Montaff and Hurricane Higgins are capable of going close on their best form and this looks less competitive than their recent tasks.
