A well-contested nursery in which most have some sort of chance. Kylach Me If U Can won nicely at Catterick but is 9lb higher now and this looks a better race. Arabian Bride disappointed on her handicap debut at Chester and has something to find with Buccaneers Vault on that run but Sakhee's Return should go well with the step up in trip likely to suit. SUPREME OCCASION took a while to get organised at Thirsk but fairly flew in the closing stages to catch Abbey Angel. The handicapper may have let her in lightly here on that evidence so she gets the vote.
