Seaview would be an appropriate winner on this track but her latest third came in a Leicester seller. London Grammar is also only a plater but Richard Fahey's pair Galahad and Reinstorm are interesting. Adam McNamara takes 5lb off the former, who has been keeping much better company, and the latter ran his best race so far over this trip at Thirsk. LIL'S AFFAIR was noted staying on well over 7f at Musselburgh last month so the extra furlong should suit and she gets the nod off a pound lower mark, though a market move for either of the Tim Easterby runners - He's A Toff and Babalugats – would be significant. Ed Dunlop has a decent strike-rate here so Crystal Dome is also worth a second look.
