Pour L'amour continues to run well without winning and looks stuck on her current mark. But STAR ASCENDING (NAP) returned to winning ways over track and trip last time and remains on a winning mark despite 3lb rise. He should go close again while Inflexiball found only the progressive Smiley Bagel too good here on her penultimate start and can also figure. Leonardo went close at Windsor having slid down the weights and Reckless Wave remains unexposed.
