Melting Dew is developing into a smart middle-distance handicapper and found only one too good when chasing a hat-trick over 1m6f at Goodwood earlier this month. PACIFY was a staying-on fifth in that race, however, having missed the break and is now 5lb better off. Ralph Beckett’s charge has already run well twice here this year and should confirm latest form with Mister Belvedere. He gets a tentative vote in a wide-open renewal with the yard having already won one valuable handicap at the meeting. Kelly's Dino improved again to win at Ascot last month and looks a danger to all while a case can also be made for the three-year-old Caliburn, who is back over his best trip today. Titus, Appeared and First Nation are others who warrant a mention while Mukhayyam looks the pick of the Tim Easterby trio.
