Mahkama has already been beaten twice off today's mark but Doncaster fourth West Leake Hare could be interesting dropping back in trip and Royal Trix, just beaten over 5f here last month, isn't badly treated in her first handicap. Findhornbay should also do better now going handicapping but could find MINCE too strong here. Roger Charlton's filly reared when the stalls opened at Newbury last time and lost many lengths at the start. But she still found enough to cut down her rivals inside the final furlong and is probably a good deal better than her current handicap mark suggests.
