Quixote has been very consistent on the all-weather and scored at Lingfield in March but is 6lb higher here. Dorry K had been showing some ability before coming with a strong run to score at Nottingham and a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another big effort while Mistress Of Rome will love the soft ground and is still on the upgrade judging by her victory at Nottingham. Ma Kellys was out with the washing for much of the way on his first start on turf over 7f here last month but came with a late rattle and will be well suited by the longer trip. TAKE TWO has steadily improved and there was much to like about his victory over Shot In The Dark at Bath last week so a penalty may not prevent a quick follow-up.
