This looks quite competitive but Quantum Of Solace is possibly best watched making a belated reappearance. Mystic Dreamer was only headed in the dying strides at Fontwell last month and makes her handicap debut. Miss Heritage got off the mark in a novice event here last time and Maxime Tissier rides this track as well as anyone but his mount is taken on with MASKADA. Stuart Edmunds’ filly won well at Warwick before running in a Grade 1 at Chepstow and has a handy weight-for-age allowance. Makety may need a bit further but is still preferred to Furia D'Oudairies and Alys Rock.
