Limegrove won a claimer here on her latest start but will find life tougher in this company. Both Flicksta and Flashy Queen went close on Turf last time and step back up a furlong for this but 5f winner Madagascar Moll has been well beaten in handicaps since landing her maiden. LAWYER will need to improve to open his account but may well do so after competing in maiden races at Ascot and Newmarket. Luca Cumani's colt gets the vote on his handicap bow ahead of another likely improver in Dream Silka.
