Hard to look beyond the improving and hat-trick seeking MISTRESS MASSINI who faces a 10lb rise for two easy handicap wins here over 3m and at Catterick (3m1f) on her return to racing under Rules. The handicapper is unlikely to have caught up with her yet and she should continue her progression. Market Road is another who has refound his form of late although there is a question mark about him staying this trip even on this sharp track. Smuggler’s Blues didn’t really get the run of events on his chasing debut and this Irish point-to-point winner is expected to do better now on his second try over the larger obstacles.
