Bushwise is the only course winner in tonight's line-up but he was well beaten in a lower grade at Bath last time. All-weather winner Abberley Dancer has no worthwhile form on Turf so this can go to CAITIE, who followed up a first success at Brighton with an even better run when only beaten half-a-length at Goodwood – she's only a pound higher here. Guilded Rock only beat one home on his handicap debut but Zabdi may fare better dropping back down in trip.
