A few of these have a handicap mark with First Bombardment and Parkour closely matched at the weights. But the former has had plenty of chances and the latter finished last at Windsor on his latest start. Ciara's Beauty has a shout on these terms but her latest placed effort came in a claimer and the less-exposed IF WINTER COMES (NAP) is preferred. The latter has found one too good on both starts to date and gets the nod on her latest second at Chelmsford. Stylish Minerva has gone backwards since a third at Newbury and Irish Eclare disappointed at Windsor last time.
