Verdict

BAHAMIAN DESERT may prove good enough in a low grade handicap. Second at Musselburgh a fortnight ago, he can confirm running with Wisteria and Miningrocks and go one better. Mon Gris ran well here before disappointing at Redcar and Proud Of You finished closer at Beverley last time. Western Playboy was not at his best at Brighton but has a chance on earlier placed efforts while Machiavelian Storm and Straight Arrow are lightly-raced types to consider.
