Veteran See Double You likes it here and is a course and distance winner off this mark. Ash Park has done well lately, winning at Kelso and Cartmel, and will handle today's softer going. Bowdler's Magic could be interesting back over timber and Kumbeshwar has dropped to a mark from which he should be capable of winning but Buckled was put up 6lb after winning at Perth. NAUTICAL NITWIT has been racing over further but this is a stiff track so his stamina will be an asset. Placed twice off this mark already, it may be his turn today.
