Masked Identity is penalised for making a winning start over 7f here last month while Sarasota was beaten only a neck by the progressive Bay Of Naples over the same trip on her latest start. But NAWAR ended last year with placed efforts over a mile in handicaps at Kempton and he gets the vote back in novice company on his return to action. Harbour Breeze is another returning from a lay-off having finished third over 1m2f at Newmarket back in May while Willy Sewell showed a big improvement last time and Bawaader needs to do the same if he’s to figure.
