Race Tip
Clive Cox won this last year and may well do so again with SHOSTAKOVA (8). This daughter of Sergei Prokofiev wasn't knocked about when fourth behind the subsequent Queen Mary winner at Nottingham on her debut and she could improve now stepping up to 6f. The Andrew Balding trained newcomer HANDCUFFED (5) looks good on paper and rates highly. HAVANA DANCE (6) will appreciate going back up in trip after finishing third over 5f at Bath on second outing. Market support behind BRIGHTWALTON (2) can be heeded.
