HORCRUX (6) is a talented gelding who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 3 lengths behind Wind And The Lion over 6f in the LR Placid Ark Stakes at this track. Blinkers go on. Looks a top chance. BONNIE LAD (1) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when fourth over 5f at this track. Has further improvement to come and is expected to do much better. TREASURED QUEEN (5) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when seventh, beaten 1.75 lengths, over 6f at this track. Has never been out of the placings at the third run in and can find peak form this time. STYLISH LORD (3) performed above expectations when resuming last time over 6f at this track, finishing 1.2 lengths from the winner in second after starting at huge odds. Record at this track is strong. Fitter and can play a role.
