A couple of these have achieved a handicap rating with Rangooned coming out best at the weights ahead of Con Leche. The less exposed types may improve past that pair today, however, and they include Ada Lovelace. She posted a much better effort at Wolverhampton last time giving the impression today's shorter trip would suit but ROYAL ACQUISITION is just preferred. He caught the eye staying on well for fourth on his racecourse debut over C&D last week and normal improvement can see him off the mark.
