The lightly weighted Manic gets a slender vote of confidence over Code Orange and Rancho Cucamonga, who are both in good enough heart to merit a second look in the betting when things start to warm up. Pertemps Mangus was heavily punted last time and it will also be noteworthy to see if her connections are as buoyant about her chances again this evening. She is weighted to get the better of Rancho Cucamonga, who is respected but will find this tough under a 6lb penalty. Still, Code Orange is an unexposed type that could well pose the most problems this time. John Gosden has not rushed with this daughter of Green Desert and she still has plenty of scope for improvement. However, it was a messy race when she won her maiden at Lingfield and she could be vulnerable against these seasoned campaigners. Especially if Manic hits the gates running. There has been plenty to like about the attitude of the selection and, as she is holding her form well at present, Manic is fancied to prove the one to beat, as she is so well treated for this return to turf.
