Only a small field with Never Say Goodbye likely to find a comfortable lead. NEVER SAY GOODBYE (3) returns from a layoff of five-and-a-half months. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1400m at this track. Capable of playing a major role while fresh. LA LA PASSAGE (1) is poised to win after placing at his last three outings, most recently when third over 1400m here when he was prominent throughout. Looks well placed so expect another big run. LA ROYALE (2) finished fourth last start over 1400m at this circuit after racing on the pace for much of the way. Will push forward and is among the leading chances. ENA ASCOT (7) was in the firing line on the turn and finished second last time over 1400m at this course when resuming from a spell, beaten 3.5 lengths. In the right race this time and is a winning hope.
