Attache won easily over track and trip in May but was beaten off today’s 9lb higher mark back here last time. IDEAL GUEST (NAP) is penalised for last week’s course and distance success but looks worth sticking with given that was his first outing in a visor and he has fast ground again. Mumcat was expected to finish closer at Yarmouth last time but that was her debut on Turf and she may finish closer today.
