Storm Lightning won this off a lower mark last year but needs to dig a bit deeper judged on recent placed efforts. Seamster is upped in class as he bids for a hat-trick and has been raised a further 6lb while Brother Tiger made all over 6f at Lingfield last year but attempts this shorter trip for the first time. EMJAYEM (NAP) has been getting steadily closer and Ed McMahon's charge looks set for a return to winning ways after a good effort behind the in-form Mister Manannan at Beverley. He gets the vote with The Dandy Yank and Distant Past others who could go well.
