QUEENOFTHECLYDE (NAP) finished in front of both Comeatchoo and Invincible Bertie when winning at Wolverhampton last month. She went close again in a higher grade sprint than this at Sandown last time and Karl Burke’s filly gets the vote in her current form. Shepherds Way may do better back over today’s minimum trip while Chocoholic could figure if first-time headgear has the desired effect. Puerto Sol has yet to threaten and makes his handicap debut on his first start since May.
