Verdict
Direct Times makes his belated reappearance having made the frame at Doncaster on last year's debut. Advance has his first start for a new trainer after finishing second on the all-weather back in February and Southwell third Livia Drusilla is another returning from a lengthy absence. Thorntoun Lady is the highest rated of the more exposed types but a chance is taken on the newcomer BAILEYS PARTYTIME being good enough given the Johnston filly is related to five winners including the useful Party Boss and Countrywide Flame.
