MITIGATE (NAP) landed a maiden race in good style at Lingfield in February and Ryan Moore’s only ride of the meeting is fancied to defy a hike in the weights. She’s preferred to another recent maiden winner Preobrajenska, who won over track and trip last month, while Gala Celebration is penalised for an easy win at Lingfield a week ago. Sea Shack and Challow drop back down in class as they return to action with the former preferred over today’s trip while Sans Souci Bay came up short in a claimer on his latest start.
