Fortamour bids to follow up his victory at Newcastle. He steps up in trip again and carries a penalty but remains unexposed and should be thereabouts if lasting home. Mac Jetes was only beaten a neck at Chepstow earlier this month having shown little in her first two starts. Love Explodes made late headway in a handicap at Thirsk two weeks ago and blinkers could aid her cause but Kentucky Kingdom hasn’t raced since failing to land the odds at Kempton in January and has changed stables. MONOGAMY could be the interesting one as she ran well on debut at Newbury last year and travelled strongly for a long way over a longer trip on her reappearance at Sandown in April. The drop in distance and grade here will suit and she looks the type to go well fresh.
