MALLER TREE did not have an unduly hard race when scoring at Newton Abbot two days ago. Shane Quinlan's 5lb claim reduces a penalty and David Dennis' charge can go in again. Mazurati came out second-best in a scrap for the line at Southwell three weeks ago and has been raised 6lb for his trouble while He's A Bully and Borguy were both well beaten despite running into a place on their latest starts. Chance Taken has claims racing off a lower mark than when third at Warwick, however, while Global Dream showed his first worthwhile form when fourth at Towcester last month.
