Race preview
BIRDIE BOWERS failed to fire at Southwell last time but he had made the frame twice over this C&D prior to that and he can be given another chance today. Nellie French clearly needed her comeback run last month but she should not be underestimated. Bakr edges out Independent Beauty and Seeking Perfection to be the pick of the remainder.
