Win Lose Draw opened his account with an easy win over 7f here but the handicapper took offence and raised him 13lb. KUBEBA is preferred as he had been off the track for a year before finishing second over track and trip three weeks ago and looks up to winning off his current mark. Lmntrix posted a better effort last time but on the Fibresand at Southwell while My Bubba only won a lowly Class 7 event at Kempton recently and is upped 5lb. La Havrese has won twice over longer trips here this year but is back on a winning mark.
