A competitive handicap with a few of these looking to get back on track after racing in better company of late. Bath specialist ALCANDO and Ripon maiden winner Royal Aspiration are capable of better dropped in class and the vote goes to Denis Coakley's charge with Eddie Ahern doing the steering from a low draw. Recent winners on the up include Jubilee Diamond, Inka Surprise and Evoke while Pira Palace and Tarbawi could prove best of the rest.
