Prince Mahler showed signs of improvement last month at Taunton behind a subsequent winner. BALDADASH is not getting any younger but is obviously at his best at this time of year, as he showed last time at Kempton. He is 6lb higher but has a 7lb claimer on board so could go in again. The Kid, Chevalgris and Be Seeing You would all have a squeak but Le Braye is proving a disappointment.
