Newmarket Warrior went close over a mile at Ayr having slipped down the weights while Secret City, Ad Vitam and Star Cracker have all been thereabouts over shorter distances of late. Totally Magic won a lower grade contest at Catterick last time and Lady Atlas also steps up in class after finishing second at Ayr. Beverley winner Illustrious Prince could go well back on soft ground but a speculative vote goes to LAVETTA, who never settled and was well beaten stepped up to 1m2f at Redcar last time but should fare better back over 7f on only her second start handicapping.
