ANDOK has won twice around here and has been successful from much higher marks. Sean Davis is one of the more experienced riders here and Richard Fahey's charge is taken to gain track victory number three. The Night King is best at this trip on the all-weather though is only up 3lb for his Chelmsford victory earlier this month. Misu Pete has managed to win eight times including on the latter track last month though surprisingly he's much better handicapped on the all-weather. Kannopolis didn't run well on his final start in an amateurs' race last season but his earlier efforts in better class than this put him in the picture. Consultant has more scope than most of these and though still a maiden he could provide the main threat as he returned to action last April with a narrow defeat than ran well after a very long break at Newmarket in November.
