Takafol failed to live up to expectations when sent off odds-on favourite at Wolverhampton on his comeback. He should do better back over the minimum trip but EL CHE gets another chance. She finished ahead of Soft Love when runner-up at Lingfield last time and has every chance with a similar effort. Lydiate Lady found only one too good over track and trip a fortnight ago but this is tougher and Elizabeth Ernest has plenty to prove now after a couple of woeful attempts.
