None of these inspire confidence including Sunbaked whose earlier win came on the all-weather though she can race off a 3lb lower mark in this. ASHFORD ISLAND also won on the all-weather at Chelmsford in March and has gone close at Brighton off today’s mark subsequently. He gets a token vote while Lillyput may improve dropped into plating company today. Masqueraded was still beaten a long way when third at Leicester recently but Paul Hanagan’s presence could point to a better effort from She's Golden.
