Regional Rock returns to the course and distance of his last race that didn't pan out favourably but, with a stronger pace here likely, he can reward backers with some paying four places. Brosay has returned to form and is looking well-handicapped now and with two recent seconds andlooks value against a couple of horses making their handicap debut after wins last time out.

Berlinetta led over 1f out in her win over 1m at Windsor and her subsequent 4th at Doncaster suggested 7f might be the ideal trip for the lightly-raced 3yo filly. It's easy to forgive some Newmarket runs and she raced on the wrong side there last time out. She should go well against some exposed types. This is a different test than recent good showings for likely favourite Espanita but she is a threat nonetheless.
