Forgiving Glance found only one too good at Bath last time and can figure if staying the extra distance. La Fritillaire went close over 1m5f here three weeks ago but was well beaten over 2m before that so a tentative vote in a tight handicap goes to CAFE CAPRICE. She opened her account over 1m5f here last time and there may be more to come over this longer trip. Rainbow Pride represents Sir Mark Prescott and could leave his modest form behind as he steps up in distance and Willow Jubilee made the frame over track and trip last month, though was behind La Fritillaire.
