Bernard Llewellyn delivers his usual trick of running a handful in Welsh handicaps with Pandorica looking the best of his trio here, with jockey bookings confirming that view. The former Clive Cox inmate has been solid enough in recent outings but preference is for VILLA ROYALE who may well have the ability to outclass this field. She was easily swept aside by the impressive Asker last time at Chepstow but didn't appear to stay a mile and a half on heavy ground. A mile and a quarter on soft looks far more suitable and she can conquer her exposed opponents, especially as there may be more to come from her. Jalors has fair form in modest handicap company and should be good enough to get involved in a weak contest.
