Lady Bridget may do better back down in trip today and Songsmith can figure on his return judged on last October's second at Salisbury. Better is expected from Poyle Punch after his debut third over 7f here but this can go to SHELOVESTOBOUGGIE, who gave the impression she would improve for the run when fifth at Windsor on her reappearance. Henry Cecil's filly is taken to open her account in what looks a less competitive contest. Suomi and Dare To Bare are both related to winners and worth noting on their racecourse debuts.
