MATAMUA placed in a handicap at Nottingham recently and returns to his level with leading claims. Andrea Atzeni takes over the reins and she’s preferred to stablemate Sense Of Humour. Flame of Freedom has placed in both outings so far and returns to 7f while Across The Nile was beaten by a subsequent handicap winner when second at Kempton on last year’s debut. Makinitup, Peintre D'etoiles and Empress Makeda look the most likely to improve of the remainder.
