Formscan - Queshi Bridge posted a respectable effort when second over 2m5f on debut for the Alastair Ralph yard here last month and, having previously shown ability over this trip during her time in Ireland, the eight-year-old is a notable contender. Nevertheless, the distance is a concern and, with that in mind, the less-exposed BRENDAS ASKING, who represents a resurgent yard, is preferred. She can utilise her speed to make a winning handicap debut, while the low-mileage Dromlac Jury also warrants a betting check.
