Veteran How's My Friend is better off than when beaten by How's Vienna here in March and he was second to an unexposed type over course and distance last month, though is 4lb higher now. Armedandbeautiful has finished second in her last two but remains winless. Snowball stayed on strongly to beat LEITH HILL LEGASI (NAP) in the mud at Towcester in February but Charlie Longsdon’s mare is much better off at the weights and can turn the tables. She’s not easy to catch right but is well treated at present and her turn may have come around again. Carqalin step up in trip while this may be too early in the campaign for Goring One.
