The penultimate race on the card is a ten runner handicap and the in form Mark Johnston team look to have a live hope with UNDERSTORY and he can take this from Leaving Alone and Think Its All Over. The selection has been in good form on the poly track in recent weeks and if handling the switch to grass will be very hard to beat. He was a good winner of an average Wolverhampton maiden on his last start and if improving again his mark of 75 should not be prove to be too taxing. His main danger may come from the Hannon horse, Leaving Alone, who ran in an above average fillies maiden at Newbury last week. She ran well considering that was her seasonal reappearance and if improving for the run should make her presence felt here. The drop in trip will also help her to get competitive. Jamie Spencer has some decent rides tonight and he is an eye catching booking on Tom Tate's Think Its All Over. His handicap mark of 75 looks very fair so if fit he should run well but this race can go to Greg Fairly and Understory.
