Supreme Kiss can benefit from the assistance of Eddie Ahern to score at the expense of Imperium, Hotchpotch and Firework. Eddie Ahern rode a treble here on Saturday, and can pay to follow again at the Surrey track as he teams up with Supreme Kiss who has been placed twice from her last three starts. Dina Smith's three-year-old has basically been outpaced before finishing well, indeed she missed the break totally the time before last, and is weighted to turn the tables on Cayman Breeze this time. Imperium had Hotchpotch right behind when second over seven furlongs here 17-days ago, and should at least maintain that form on the same terms as he drops back to a more suitable trip. Firework is a past course-and-distance winner and has enough placed form to figure as well, but Supreme Kiss will benefit from stronger handling today, and that should make the difference between defeat and victory.
