QUERIDO did well to finish as close as he did behind a couple of a higher rated rivals in a Lingfield seller last week and Paddy Butler's C&D winner can get his head back in front in this low grade handicap. Baby Driver is another dropped in class after some better efforts at this track recently, while Harvest Mist had Brave Decision just behind when third here on her latest outing. Cwmni occupied the same position over a shorter trip here last month and could make the frame once again.
