LEELU is worth a shot in an open contest. The David Arbuthnot charge has disappointed this term in general but was only beaten a length and a half when last of six latest. She has useful form in the book from last year and makes appeal having dropped to a very feasible mark here. Bold Ring has taken a real liking to Brighton the last three times and a repeat of her C&D success last month would see her go close again. Previous efforts this term had been moderate but she's a contender if continuing in her recent vein of form with Tom Queally a good booking. The lightly-raced Thunda is a danger to all having shown plenty of promise this term and should have more improvement to come, although the handicapper has not been overly kind.
