Verdict
BABYFACT is upped 4lb for winning at Sandown last week but she beat Ask The Guru and Keep It Dark on that occasion and should go well again. Quantum Dot won at Chepstow recently but runner-up Dreams Of Glory re-opposes on better terms while though Pharoh Jake ran well at Lingfield last time it was in a lower grade. Kiringa was beaten less than a length at Redcar and Monumental Man slips further down the weights but Captain Ryan has a bit to find with the selection on earlier running at Bath.
