THOUWRA is the speculative selection in an open maiden. Mickael Barzalona's presence suggests he's expected to make amends for failing to land the odds at Ripon last month and he's preferred to stablemate and newcomer Hunting Ground. She's Late was unfancied at Newbury last time and never threatened when finishing fourth and there are doubts about Estifaaz lasting home as he steps up from 7f. The form of Bedouin Invader's second at Windsor in April isn't working out but the likes of Secret Song, Missed Call and Salford Excel may all improve for today's extra distance. Elas Law could prove best of the newcomers.
