A low grade handicap where the market should be monitored though CARENZA made such progress when well supported here last month that she can defy a 6lb rise and complete the double. Midfield General was a disappointing favourite at the Curragh but The Black Devil, though 8lb higher than his only success, is running well enough to double his tally sooner rather than later. Waterloo Sunrise did well to finish runner-up to Fairylike over 1m2f here last time though could have done without a 3lb rise and Pivot Bridge appears to need testing conditions.
