Snooky didn't reappear until August but was only beaten half-a-length by Vital Calling at Newcastle and that run should have blown away a few cobwebs. But QANAN also brings decent form into the contest and the slight drop in distance may just suit as he failed to quicken when fifth over a mile at Nottingham last time. Fallon's mount gets the nod though Quan showed a bit more at Pontefract last time and the four-year-old filly Gladsome kept on well when second in a handicap at Newcastle last time but she may be vulnerable back in a maiden and the others have improvement to find, though De Sousa is an interesting jockey booking for David O'Meara's newcomer Miss Bunter.
