A couple of these showed a big improvement on their respective handicap debuts. Amazing Fox led for most of the way on the Turf course at Lingfield before caught close home and is a similar type to Rajman, who also attempted to make all over 7f here but faded in the closing stages. Both look vulnerable if similar tactics are employed today and GREGORIAN GIRL gets a tentative vote to take advantage on her handicap debut having posted a much better effort in a tougher race at Newmarket last month. Devils Roc has a bit to find with Amazing Fox so Princess Florence makes more appeal.
