Verdict
After gaining her first career victory on her 22nd start here a month ago, BOUGHTFORASONG just couldn't hold off Shabra Emperor over an extra furlong last week and can get back to winning ways. Gallena took a while to acclimatise after transferring from William Haggas but has been running well and by no means looks harshly treated. Oor Jock began in handicaps back in 2010 off a mark of 98 after landing a Naas maiden. Incredibly he's never won since in 29 starts so it shouldn't be a surprise that he's 35lb lower now. Cappadocia won twice over this trip at Kempton for Mick Channon and his best runs on this track have been over the trip. Regal Power couldn't get to the in-form Strategic Heights over the minimum trip but stayed on and the extra furling will help though he's never won on the surface nor has Calling You, who has been beaten off a lower mark.
