GIFT OF THE HEART (3) will be chasing a hat-trick of wins on this track after making it 2 wins on the bounce here last week, when leading all the way and scoring by over a length. The step up to 1500m won't pose a problem, and with the aid of a 2kg claim, he will take some pegging back. BEAUTIFUL BAROQUE (6) finished an unlucky fifth here last week over a mile and was only a short-head from the winner before that, also on this track. If the gaps come at the right time, she can take this out. KNOT SECRET (1) held off all challengers to break his win drought at Ascot 15 days ago, holding on by a short-head. That sort of form will make him hard to beat in this. Go again. HENRY THE AVIATOR (2) had a tough trip when finishing midfield at Ascot last time out in a tougher field. He has a solid record on his home track here and is well-placed to bounce straight back into the money.
