Sailor At Sea looks to be going the right way and is taken to score once more at the expense of Jennifers Joy and Barraland. The selection improved from his debut at Lingfield to break his maiden tag at Sandown last time out. The ground conditions will pose as a question mark as the ground was fast at Sandown and the ground is likely to be on the soft side at Bath. Having said that if he can handle the conditions his form looks a cut above the rest. Jennifers Joy looked exposed in listed company at York last time out but had shown a good level of form at Warwick the time beforehand. This looks a race within her grasp so any market moves should be noted. Barraland has had plenty of chances this season and broke his maiden tag at Lingfield back in May. He looked to have handled the soft conditions at Lingfield last time out so is one to note but for the winner we return to Sailor At Sea to win back to back races.
