SHADOW OF THE SUN appreciated the drop back to 5f on her handicap debut at Warwick when beaten less than a length in fourth. She'd have gone close to winning with a faster start and gets the nod here. Queen Grace and Poppy were both placed in handicaps last time and are closely matched at the weights, but Missile Attack has a bit to find on today's terms. Galloping Minister finished fourth over 6f on his only start at this track and looks best of the rest.
