Verdict
Mrs Neat has rarely been beaten far on Polytrack and a big run from Urban Kode in the previous race will boost her chances. She holds Roi Du Boeuf on their run behind Memorabilia here and ran quite well at Kempton on Thursday. Not So Bright has never raced over this trip and though usually staying on over 7f this is much further to travel. Rainbows Reach makes her handicap debut from a very lowly mark and showed a little bit more over the C&D last time but it's difficult to get away from the chance of SKELETON. Twice a Polytrack winner for William Haggas, she was claimed by David Evans after her C&D success last month and can gain instant reward for new connections.
