AZULADA BAY won at Plumpton in April and wasn't beaten far off his new mark at Warwick last month. If a visor sparks a little further improvement, Mark Rimell's charge could get back on the winning trail here. This is Princely Hero's track and time of year and he is starting to look reasonably treated again while Little Carmela was well backed when third at Uttoxeter last month. Referent and Mudita Moment have alternative engagements this weekend however.
