MAZOVIAN will again benefit from Stan Sheppard's claim and looks a decent bet to follow up a maiden victory over hurdles at Ludlow ahead of Sedgefield scorer Nicki's Nipper. Tullow Tonic may be the pick of the remainder in a weak-looking opener, though that's not saying much. Desert Sting looks best of those nearer the foot of the handicap ahead of Dalby Spook.
