Maid Millie won a lower grade sprint here last time while the frustrating Marvel has now placed in eight of his nine outings after finishing third at York. Global Humor beat several of these including Dubai Elegance and Come On Girl when winning over track and trip and can go well again but JUNGLE INTHEBUNGLE finally looks set to end a long losing run having tumbled down the weights. Placed on Turf the last twice, he finished runner-up on his last visit here in June and is also preferred to last month’s Lingfield second Seprani. Unapologetic has undergone wind surgery since last in action and makes her handicap debut.
