Rosa Gold goes for a four-timer after a break since winning easily over 1m2f at Chepstow. She's never raced over a trip this far and is 10lb higher but is very progressive and unlikely to go down without a battle. Sri Sene Power came with a late run to win with a bit in hand at Windsor and makes her handicap debut but Tronada found stepping up to this class beyond her at Doncaster after completing a double in lower grade. BY MY SIDE landed a Class 5 Sandown handicap before stepping up three grades at Salisbury where she couldn't handle Almareekh. The winner was completing a hat-trick and Michael Bell's filly is taken to return to winning ways. Horn Of Plenty and dual course winner Lovers' Gait are others with chances in a competitive handicap.
