MOTAWAAZY and Mr Strutter won their respective divisions of a handicap over track and trip a fortnight ago. It was soft going on that occasion but the latter is versatile as regards the ground and should go close again. Shackabooah is penalised for winning at Beverley a couple of days ago while Hachert and Golden Melody returned losing favourites on their latest starts, though the latter drops down in class for this and could go close.
