BELATED BREATH made all for an easy success at Salisbury last week and is perfectly berthed close to the stands’ rail to lead again. Hughie Morrison’s three-year-old carries a penalty but can shrug off the extra with Theodore Ladd claiming back 3lb. Sophie Ralston rides this course well and got going too late when chasing a hat-trick at Chepstow last time. He’ll have something to aim at here and rates a danger. Cent Flying has only been raised 2lb for justifying favouritism at Brighton and Haylah has four seconds to her name. Grey Galleon and Frank Cool also warrant a mention.
