Romantic Comedy found KEMSING a length too good over track and trip last month. He re-opposes on more favourable terms but the latter seemingly won with a bit in hand and Julia Feilden's charge is taken to confirm superiority in this. Specialv is closely matched with Romantic Comedy on more recent running over a mile here while Footlight was placed at Lingfield a fortnight ago and could figure if taking to the surface. Leitrim Traveller also debuts on Fibresand but Rupert Boy has been placed over 6f here and attempts a longer trip for the first time.
