Handicap debutant Sharja Bridge never came off the bridle when winning a maiden at Nottingham but a disappointing earlier defeat at Pontefract had exposed possible flaws so he may not be the 'good thing' he appears at first glance with no fewer than six previous course and distance winners in the field. Of those, the Richard Hannon pair Almoreb and THE GRAPE ESCAPE look of particular interest with preference for the lightly-raced latter who was progressing well prior to finding the Britannia Stakes too tough at Royal Ascot.
