Already successful three times including in a decent conditions race at Beverley two starts ago, Mick Channon's Archers Road has to be respected but a draw on the outside in stall seven is far from ideal and preference is for MDAWEE, who gets the vote over Totally Invincible. Ed McMahon's filly has improved with each start that she has had and was good value for her defeat of Elusive Sue at Catterick at the beginning of the month but she probably needs to improve again to trouble the judge. Dancing Red Devil sprung a bit of a surprise when landing a novice stakes race over course and distance on her debut and she has to be respected but this is tougher. Goodbye Earl looks the pick of Alan Berry's two runners ahead of Psychopathicsandra but it is hard to get away from Mdawee. Tom Dascombe's colt won well on his debut in an auction maiden at Warwick and was there with every chance before fading late on at Sandown last time. This is a less stiff five furlongs and that should suit the son of Choisir as should a draw in stall one.
