David O’Meara has won the last two renewals but Intisaab will need to improve again under a penalty for winning at Ayr during the week. Escalating has so far proved best over the minimum trip while Red Tycoon has yet to win a handicap. Faintly has been winning plating races while Mon Brav and Mappin Time have slipped down the weights and are preferred to April’s Thirsk winner Pomme De Terre. But MEANDMYSHADOW is back on a winning mark and having been beaten only a head at Nottingham last time, it could be the turn of Alan Brown’s sprinter once again.
