Comeatchoo won at Kempton last month but has been beaten since and is 7lb higher today. He still finished ahead of both Secret Identity and She's Easyontheeye when runner-up over track and trip earlier but preference goes to QUEENS ROAD. The latter finished runner-up in a tougher sprint than this at Chelmsford on her handicap debut and further progress is expected from Bill Turner’s filly racing off the same mark. Bal Mal posted his best effort so far when second at Kempton though that was over 6f while Queen Aya may finish closer dropping down in class for this having undergone wind surgery.
