Bartat is back on a winning mark and wasn’t far away at Lingfield last week while Blue Venture ended last year with a string of placed efforts including a second over track and trip when finishing ahead of Shaun's Delight. Port Noir has gone close over 6f in the past while SPUROFTHEMOMENT attempted to make all over the same distance when runner-up at Kempton on her reappearance and a return to this shorter trip looks a logical move.
