Midnight Sequel just held on from the re-opposing Better Me Mine over 1m3f here last month but the latter was having her first start of the year and may turn the tables today. Ermyn Flyer was a ready winner over a mile at Brighton last week but has something to prove stepping up in distance and Aiaam Al Wafa has also come up short in previous attempts at today's trip. Cato Minor ended last season with a second at Bath and may figure but the vote goes to LIKE CLOCKWORK. He makes his Polytrack debut after an improved effort at Leicester on his handicap debut and there should be more to come from him. Courtesy Call could prove best of the remainder.
