Chester Deelyte remains 6lb higher than last month's win at Leicester but was placed on her latest start and should be thereabouts again. Beautiful Day and Mini Bon Bon both recorded this year's earlier wins on the Fibresand and haven't figured since, while Pitkin appeared to be running into form before posting a dismal effort at Haydock last time. SWENDAB scored over 6f at Chepstow in May but has plenty of early pace and this shorter trip shouldn't be too much of an inconvenience. A first-time visor should sharpen him up and he gets the vote with his latest fourth at Bath working out well.
