Florencio may do better in this lower grade having slipped down the weights while Tilghman is fitted with a headgear for his handicap debut and will be sharper for last month’s comeback run. Human Nature finished a lot closer over 6f at Kempton last time and has gone close over today’s trip in the past but RAPTURE opened her account when making all over 7f at Lingfield last time and Archie Watson’s filly is expected to figure in the finish again now she’s got her head in front. Broughtons Flare won at Newmarket earlier in the year and can do better back over today’s distance after modest efforts over 6f.
