Verdict
None of these can be recommended with any confidence and only a speculative vote goes the way of ENLIVEN. She ran better than a seventh at Newbury would suggest as she faded badly close home and this looks a much easier task. Dutch Descent failed to make any progress from a debut fourth at Thirsk back at the same track last week and Cliff makes more appeal after a modest introduction at Beverley. Zain Empire is a half-brother to a winner and won't need to be anything special to figure.
