Pena Dorada has dropped to a handy mark but has shown little encouragement in two outings for her new yard. More Madness wasn’t beaten far here last month but rarely wins and is not one to rely on, and Don Franco ran poorly over hurdles when last seen. Cruising Bye has returned to something like his best form this summer, running well in a similar race at Southwell last time, and has place claims but MISS JOEKING (NAP) is the one to be on here. She produced her best performance to date over fences when winning at Hexham and appears to relish this sort of trip. Bafana Choice finished third over course and distance last month and is of some each-way interest.
