Verdict
Having returned a losing favourite on both previous starts, BAHEEJA finally came good at Thirsk last week when winning a maiden. She wasn't disgraced on her earlier handicap debut at Newbury and can follow up now she's got her head in front. Jack Of Diamonds opened his account over 6f here last month and should make another bold bid. He's preferred to Adranian, second in a claimer at this track last time, and Lucky Money, who has disappointed in both starts so far this season. Excellent Jem posted a better effort at Yarmouth recently and could make the frame.
