Two three-year-olds have won this in the past five years so Fredricka has to be respected on her hat-trick attempt as she loves fast ground and hasn't been punished by the assessor. Storyline won here in May and wasn't beaten far at Musselburgh last time while Tim Easterby also saddles Traditionelle, who gained her first-ever success at Wolverhampton recently but has been raised an incredible 11lb for her trouble. Orient Class is running well and has an obvious chance despite a big weight and a penalty but this can go to ELAND ALLY. Tom Tate's charge has a poor strike-rate of 1-30 but finished runner-up in this last year from a higher mark and has been racing over 6f for most of this season. Little Eli finished close up in a better race at Haydock last time and is one to note.
