School Fees is only 1lb higher than when scoring at Bath last summer, but a string of placed efforts suggests Spark Of Genius remains a shade high in the weights. Mata Hari Blue is another on a high enough mark and Song Of Parkes makes more appeal. She went close at Wolverhampton last time when AL FREEJ finished fourth. However, with only one previous outing on Turf, the latter has more scope on this surface and is taken to reverse running on better terms. Foreign Rhythm ended a long losing run when beating See Clearly and Pivotal Prospect at Redcar last time and should go well again, but the remainder are harder to fancy.
