SILK MILL BLUE beat Miss Bates, due to run in the previous division, over track and trip last month. This is no tougher and Richard Whitaker’s charge is fancied to go in again. Kavora has tumbled down the handicap and attempts a mile for the first time having gone close over 7f here recently while Little Choosey should improve for last month’s belated comeback run and could be thereabouts. Highwayman posted one of his better efforts here last time and scored over course and distance earlier in the year.
