Good Earth failed to get a clear run when beaten a length at Wolverhampton with Mutabaahy behind. But he remains without a win on the all-weather in 17 attempts and the less exposed SUGAR BABY is preferred. The latter was beaten less than a length over track and trip with For Peat's Sake and Ubahha finishing behind and looks up to winning off his current mark on that evidence. Bridgetown placed at Lingfield recently though in maiden company over 6f and will find this tougher.
