Verdict
Suite Francaise was not disgraced behind a well handicapped rival at Musselburgh and can go one better here, while Fly Kiss can again go well and Pequeno Dinero is another for the short list in this nursery. The Sir Mark Prescott-trained selection has Seb Sanders back on board after being a four length second last time. This extra half furlong and stiffer finish will better suit and he can go in. Fly Kiss carries a 6lb penalty for a fast ground Brighton win over 7f and as the form from that track does not always hold up elsewhere she is opposed with the extra baggage to carry. Pequeno Dinero was a c&d scorer on heavy ground last month before a 4lb rise got the better of her at Catterick but she can again be competitive. Of the remainder Boomtown is expected to show more now he goes handicapping and the market might give us a guide to his chance, but preference is for Suite Francaise.
