Timocracy rattled up a six-timer last season in plating company thanks to shrewd placing by Andrew Haynes. He showed himself capable of operating at a higher level when filling second spot in modest handicap company at Bath on his reappearance and is sure to go well, but LADY LAM has more compelling claims on the book. She's compiled a consistent profile in handicap company and delivered some useful efforts at this venue. Down 1lb after her comeback run, she should be spot-on for this assignment. Evident Pride is in fair form but hasn't won for over two years and a bigger threat is Jasmin Rai who posted a much better effort last time and should appreciate the step up to 1m2f.
