Verdict
Great Expectations is upped 3lb for winning at Brighton and should go well again while Mambo Spirit landed a double over track and trip during the summer and is not out of this now back on a winning mark. Indian Affair continues to creep up the weights without winning and course regular Edged Out looks in the handicapper's grip. The latter also has something to find on collateral form with ORIENTAL SPLENDOUR and Roger Charlton's charge gets the nod to go one better having finished runner-up off today's mark here last time.
