Verdict

Ghathanfar returned to the Turf with a victory at Redcar earlier in the month but is 6lb higher so a chance is taken on FREEDOM FLYER. The latter will need to step up on last month’s comeback at Wolverhampton but has more scope than most and improvement may be forthcoming. Dubai Quality has raced over longer trips without success so far and cheekpieces are applied while Dick Datchery gets another change of headgear on his second outing after wind surgery. Shoot To Kill won at Chelmsford in March while both Lady Nectar and Jill Rose landed doubles on the Turf last year so can't be ignored.
