Atayeb clearly improved for the step up to 11 furlongs last time out and this extra 220 yards can give him the edge here over Demisemiquaver and Thinking Positive, with Tafiya capable of going well. The selection stayed no strongly and just failed to get up at Lingfield, having never previously raced over further than 7f. With more to come at this longer trip she can score. Thinking Positive has a 7lb pull with Atayeb for defeat in that Lingfield race and should also act well at this trip. At face value she may well be able to reverse the form, but the way she ran there suggests she is not open to as much improvement. Demisemiquaver has had a few tries at around this trip and has performed with credit at both Lingfield and Newmarket on her last two starts. However, she will have to find a fair bit and the same goes for Tafiya, who might just be short of gears, so we take Atayeb to score.
