Verdict
Londonia was beaten over four lengths by Avenue Du Monde over track and trip last week but re-opposes on better terms and will have come on for that comeback run. The latter carries 6lb extra but had earlier finished ahead of Jersey Bull, Retro Valley and Lady Charlie over a mile here. Melodica is better than a recent poor effort at Newbury would suggest and goes handicapping for the first time but CALLENDULA (NAP) is preferred. She was beaten only a length in a higher grade contest at Windsor last time and should make another bold bid in this company.
