PASSION OVERFLOW can take the opener at the main expense of Liberty Lady and Victory Ide Say. The Jeremy Noseda-trained selection showed plenty of promise when runner-up over this trip on her Lingfield debut last month. She should improve for the experience and won't lack for fitness here, while we know she acts on the Polytrack and she can go one better this time. Liberty Lady caused a bit of a surprise on debut here when runner-up over the minimum trip when sent off 33/1, and while she also finished in the same placing at Wolverhampton last time, she was well held by the winner that day. On balance, she is probably unlikely to be as good as the selection, though she is respected nonetheless. Debutant Victory Ide Say is well-related in the context of this field and should be at home over this trip for starters, so we need to check the market for clues to his chance, while Cosimo De Medici is coming along steadily, though looks more likely to be a force when handicapping. All Right Now is related to 6f scorers at this age so has to enter calculations, although Sylvester Kirk's inmates are not red hot at present and Passion Overflow is preferred.
