Most of these enter the fray in good form though Superior Edge was well beaten on his return from a long absence last month and can do much better. Milton Bradley has placed Roodee Queen expertly to land a hat-trick and she may not be finished yet despite now being on her highest mark. Comptonspirit and SCARLET ROCKS were separated by a neck when placed behind Your Gifted at Haydock and they meet on the same terms. The former is very game and consistent but David Evans' filly has the more scope and is given the nod in a tricky little handicap. Delira came with a late burst to score over 6f at Warwick and may find this just on the short side.
