This is less competitive than the first division and BEAUCHAMP XIARA looks capable of returning to winning ways. Only 4lb higher than when scoring under today's apprentice at Brighton last month, she been placed twice on the Polytrack since then. Mazij quickly reverted to type after winning at seller at Yarmouth when a well beaten third last time, while the step up to today's distance at Kempton brought a little improvement from Sir Randolf. Cathcart Castle has claims if lasting home and makes most appeal of the remainder.
