Out of the frame when fifth over 1m here (maiden plate) four weeks ago; seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice; need to draw a line through his last run, but was second two starts back; he is a serious player.

Gone 18 races without a win; far from disgraced (beaten just over 2l) in a handicap last Thursday upped to 1m4f; encouragement to be gleaned from latest effort so needs to be respected.

First-time blinkers had no impact when close behind Royal Miracle over 1m (maiden plate) last month; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Still searching for first win after three tries; was tailed off over 1m at Scottsville (maiden plate) over Christmas; returns from a layoff; needs to leave most recent form behind her in new headgear and one to tread carefully with.

Verdict
Brigham is one to be interested in, and Art Nouveau and Blue Quartz could have a say. However, ROYAL MIRACLE is strongly fancied to prevail. He can bounce back from a below-par effort when last seen.
