Ghadaayer is not one of Sir Michael Stoute's leading lights but seems solid and consistent at her level and should be a leading player here. However, it might be worth chancing FLEETING MOTION who looked to be going the right way for the Hannon team until tailed off here latest. Something was clearly amiss that day and she's worth another chance as her previous run, when fourth to Prosper at Ascot, reads like the best form. Thirsk maiden winner, Lyric Harmony looks fairly treated for this handicap bow and Ice Dancing looks a likely sort as she impressed on debut before finding the move straight into a York handicap all too much.
