Amelia Jay was raised only 3lb after winning at Ayr but that still proved beyond her back at the same track last time. Chloe's Dream recorded her only win in a seller over track and trip last year and should give a good account while Lucky Lodge came good again on his latest start at Newcastle but is back up in the weights today. TIME FOR CRABBIES will need to to take another step forward after an improved effort at Wolverhampton but has scope for further progress on his handicap debut and gets a speculative vote.
