Plenty of multiple track winners and most have beaten each other in turn. Ajax Tavern has completed a double in claimers and faces a much stiffer task but BRUSHWORK got up close home over the minimum earlier this month and though 4lb higher will be better suited by the extra so gets the nod. The consistent No Speed Limit had every chance in the latter event but is also better over the longer trip while the very progressive Moshammer makes his handicap debut after a comfortable maiden success a fortnight ago. Stellar Spirit won a maiden over this trip here in November and was only caught close home over 7f last time so has to be considered along with Acquiescent and Inflection Point.
