Magroom has been in good form of late, losing no caste in defeat over course and distance last week when chasing home Purus under similar conditions and he gets the vote to go one better here ahead of Nelly's Glen and Baby Dordan. The last mentioned has shown promise but Harry Dunlop's filly remains a maiden so may be booked for place at best and looks best watched. Tony Carroll's Lordship ran better at Warwick last time and rates a bigger threat than Hucking Heat who has disappointed since winning a handicap on Lingfield's Polytrack in March. Comrade Cotton could be of interest if staying this extra furlong, while Lost All Alone would have claims if handling this softer surface. Nelly's Glen is hard to evaluate on his handicap debut and a safer option looks to be Magroom who gets the verdict.
