Kindlelight Debut overcame a poor draw to win at Salisbury last time and is strongly fancied to follow up here, with Bailieborough likely to prove the biggest danger if fit for his seasonal debut. Dean Ivory's filly had finished second twice before getting her head in front in good style at Salisbury last time, coming home a smooth winner of a fairly moderate handicap and in a race which looks just as weak she is hard to oppose here. The others are not in the best of form and can be ruled out for various reasons. Musawah is lightly-raced but has failed to progress from a promising first run this season, while Supreme Salutation and Oscar Pepper both need a longer trip than this to show their best. Bailieborough makes his first start for David Nicholls and is reasonably treated on some of his old form for Ed Dunlop, so any market confidence could prove significant. But Kindlelight Debut appears to hold all the aces here and looks to be the best bet on the day's card.
