It was firm ground when Masterson won over today’s trip at Bath last year though he is at least back on a winning mark now. Frivolous Prince was still well beaten when second over 1m4f last time while most of the remainder step up in trip. That includes Sir Mark Prescott’s CAPE CRYSTAL and she gets the vote for yard that does well with her type. Chilli Jam and Red Rose Riot are others who may improve for the longer distance in a poor handicap.
