REGAL KISS had some decent form as a two-year-old and will be all the better for her reappearance at Sandown in May, where she would probably have been placed with a clear run. Mark Johnston's filly still has a bit of scope and can return to winning ways here, though there are dangers aplenty. Pinotage got off the mark at Redcar last month while Judicious beat Munaawer over C&D on his penultimate start, though was well beaten when favourite at Carlisle last time and the runner-up is 6lb better off now.
