Kempton winner Ripoll went close again at Wolverhampton last week but still carries a penalty for his earlier success. SAHALIN (NAP) makes more appeal as she improved to land a maiden over track and trip last month and there should be more to come from Marco Botti's filly now handicapping. Lee's Hall, Lady Canford and Chilli Jam are other handicap newcomers with a shout but Cat Royale has gone backwards since a promising debut. Dream Of Summer, Blacklister and Show Me Again are not out of this either.
