It isn’t often a long-time maiden makes appeal but LHEBAYEB was just a whisker away from glory on her most recent visit to Bath and she will get another chance tonight off the very same mark. Galactic Glow has won his last two here and was turned out quickly to pick up a classified stakes seven days ago. Gallimimus has won three races since he was gelded and was a very ready winner of a contest at Brighton last week. Pink Lily is respected given she won over course and distance in May. City Escape has enjoyed success on the artificial surfaces but did prevail in a handicap at Ripon off today’s mark.
