This is competitive but Jumira Bridge has looked progressive this term, winning decent handicaps before gaining valuable black type in Listed company at York last month. She was well beaten in third that day but the move back into handicap company off an unchanged mark should see her go close. Ascot Day was well beaten on a first run after gelding and is best watched but Always Amazing could be anything and is receiving weight all round. Equimou can not be ruled out despite a hefty burden and Queen In Waiting is running well but IMPART (NAP) could be the one on the back of a close sixth in a typically competitive York sprint behind Golden Apollo - he's going the right way.
