FIVE DIAMONDS is penalised for winning a maiden over 7f at Yarmouth last month. But she landed the odds with the minimum of fuss and this extra distance should be within her scope. Voice Of Calm ran well enough for fourth at Wolverhampton on her debut considering she started at 100/1 while Aegeus and Sandyman may well improve with the former preferred upped in trip for this. Wolf Prince makes a belated seasonal debut though showed ability in a couple of starts over a mile last year.
