Bahia Breeze had an engagement at Epsom at the weekend and is probably unlikely to take her chance here, and we like Flying Clarets ahead of Fondled and Treat. The selection won at the track on her reappearance earlier in the season, and found the ground too quick for her when well held at York. She has a little to find with the best of these as her mark at presence possibly flatters her, however she should go well now back at a favoured track. Ed Dunlop has a fair hand with two runners in Chantilly Tiffany and Treat, with the latter the horse with more scope for improvement assuming that she has trained on from three to four. Fondled comes here searching for a hat-trick of victories, but she needs to step up on her recent handicap form although she may well do so. Bahia Breeze took this race two years ago and would be a player if taking part, whilst Impetious is flattered by her rating over in Ireland. An open heat, and we may see more from Steam Cuisine, however the vote goes to Flying Clarets.
