Dhhamaan, Elizabeth Swann and Sweet Hope are the three that catch the eye here and Elizabeth Swann looks to have been found a winning opportunity to end a run of seconds. Sweet Hope is clearly well regarded by Kevin Ryan as she was tried in a Class 2 Conditions contest on her second start at Chester and was beatenless than three lengths, before hitting the frame at Newbury last time. She is clearly progressing and can go close again. Dhhamann has been disappointing since finishing second here three outings ago. Until he shows a return to that sort of form he cannot be recommended, but a return to the track where he ran his best race is clearly in his favour. Elizabeth Swann lost little in defeat with a fine second at Newmarket behind a useful type on her latest start, and she has shown ability and consistency on her three runs to date. Her wide draw is a hindrance but Elizabeth Swann can gain reward for those efforts in defeat.
