Formscan - Vitalline returned to form when filling the runner-up spot at Wolverhampton and is one the likelier winners in a race lacking depth. However, the veteran might not be as effective over this shorter trip these days and Bath fourth MAY ENCOUNTER edges the vote as a result. Henry Candy's filly has been edging down the handicap this term and she may be able to take advantage of a nice draw in stall two. The lightly-raced Kyoto is a feasible each-way alternative.
