Tomily wasn't suited by Chester and has been dropped a couple of pounds but this still looks a tough task. Kananee looked a nice prospect when scoring over the minimum here in the spring and though well beaten in the Windsor Castle his stable is in much better form now. The front-running Arc Royal made all for a very easy victory over 7f at Chester and will take some catching while Battered stayed on strongly to land a Yarmouth maiden and there's more to come. Baby Gal won on fast ground at Leicester and doesn't look badly treated while the consistent Maazel will appreciate returning to 6f after staying on over the minimum. COMEDY SCHOOL was behind Kananee here in May and didn't reappear until last month when justifying strong support at Haydock. There's certain to be more to come from Mark Johnston's filly and she may be well in here so gets the nod.
