NERVOUS NERYS has completed a double in similar grade handicaps and is only 2lb higher than her latest victory. Amelia Glass, who rode her for her opening success, is on board again so Alex Hales' filly looks well in. Monarch Maid is consistent at this level but has now been beaten three times off this mark since scoring at Thirsk. Red Tycoon landed a Class 5 handicap at Bath and missed the break on a return visit. He's won from much higher marks so looks a threat. Knockabout Queen makes a quick reappearance after a close fourth at Wolverhampton on Saturday but she refused to race here earlier last month.
