Eljaddaaf is upped in class off a 5lb higher mark as he bids for a hat-trick. He beat Nasri at Kempton but the latter has since gone close at the same track and re-opposes on better terms. New Rich beat Ghost Train at Lingfield last month and both could be thereabouts but this is tougher than the seller National Service won at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start. MALAYSIAN BOLEH (NAP) won over track and trip just over a year ago. Back on a winning mark, he ran well in a higher grade sprint here last time, considering his saddle slipped, so Shaun Lycett's charge gets the nod.
