Mazij has lost her way since scoring at Wolverhampton in January. Evergreen Forest is returning from a lengthy absence but the others look closely matched in a poor handicap. Top Set has yet to reach the frame on Turf but started favourite when fourth over a mile here last week. ROY ROCKET left previous form behind when scoring over 1m2f here last week. That's earned him a penalty but he had a bit in hand and should again beat fourth Edward Elgar so gets the nod. Jazri should confirm Kempton running with Just Duchess on identical terms and may be the danger.
