Officer Drivel returned to winning ways at Windsor and should go well again while Yasir will appreciate the return to this longer trip. Cacica has yet to go close, despite several placed efforts, but DILETTA TOMMASA was beaten less than two lengths at Haydock last time despite finishing only sixth. An apprentice’s allowance could give her the edge in this and she gets the nod. Ride The Lightning was placed off a higher mark over track and trip in June and returns for the first time since.
