Jeremy Scott sent out last year’s winner and runs two including KERB LINE, who was beaten only a short head when headed on the line at Hereford last week. Due to be raised 5lb after today, he’s preferred to stablemate Wavering Down, who makes his handicap debut. Espressino won on fast going at Taunton before finding one too good at the same track recently while Tango du Roy’s second on this track also came on fast ground. With Pleasure finished third back over timber at Plumpton last time while Frame Rate and the returning Just Go For It are others with a shout.
