SINGZAK won a better race than this with something to spare at Catterick last time and a follow-up looks on the cards despite a 5lb rise. He's just preferred to Damascus Symphony as the latter's recent double came on soft ground, though she can count Srimenanti and Madrasa among her victims. It was testing ground when Ocean Bluff won a seller at Beverley, while Body Language has place claims once again and Lady Barastar is holding her form well. Ad Value failed to see out the 2m trip at Catterick last time and is another to consider.
