There are a few here with something to prove including SWISS KISS. John Gosden's filly would have been expected to have won by now as all of her dam's first five foals won as two-year-olds. She still looked inexperienced at Lingfield earlier this month and hopefully will have come on enough to take this. Royal Seal made a promising debut at Leicester then failed to last out over a mile at Haydock so dropping back to this trip is in her favour. Bishan Bedi was expected to improve at Lingfield in January when sent off favourite but he could only stay on at one pace and Zain Dream showed no improvement for a narrow defeat on his Kempton debut when well beaten at Wolverhampton. The four-year-old Role Player is very speedily bred and wouldn't still be with Michael Bell unless thought capable of winning a race and fellow newcomer Quasqazah cost 150,000gns and is a half-brother to two winners at this trip.
