Verdict
Beauchamp Quiz stepped up on previous efforts when a wide-margin scorer over this trip at Brighton earlier in the month and can defy a subsequent 6lb rise. Gerard Butler's lightly raced filly showed a useful turn of foot to lengthen clear at the seaside venue and looks ahead of the handicapper at present. Man Of The Night also won impressively last time (Flying Romance third) but is more exposed than the selection and may struggle to overcome a 10lb rise while Khaysar lacks a recent run. Irish Distinction has more to do after landing a seller on the all-weather last time but Conundrum remains on a fair mark and would have claims if back to his best after a below-par effort last time.
