Undercover Brother dropped into this lowly grade for the first time at Nottingham where he made all. He was well supported to do so and connections shouldn't be too concerned with a 4lb rise. However, the lightly-raced HONEY GG was only just over a length behind in fourth and, with a decent pull in the weights, can gain her revenge and take this. Laith Alareen made most and battled back when headed by Revenge over the course and distance and, though the latter is 5lb better off, the winner is lightly raced and can confirm the form. Bonanza Bowls ran his best race to date at Thirsk last time so is one to keep an eye on but Me Before You is 9lb higher than her victory at Ripon in May.
