Baker Man showed some progress at Newbury last time but that came over 7f in soft ground. MISS ATOMIC BOMB makes more appeal as she went close over today's trip at Bath on her debut and that looks the strongest form on offer. Marco Botti's filly should be opening her account in this as Buy And Sell's recent second over track and trip came in plating company and the rest have yet to show any worthwhile form.
