Sister Slew attracted good supported yesterday for her run here last night so the result should be monitored as she is on a very fair mark. SRETAW finished runner-up for the fifth time in succession here on Tuesday but there doesn't appear to be anything wrong with her resolution and today's extra furlong could bring about a change of fortune with Gary Halpin's claim hopefully enough to get her home at last. Northern Rocked scored over 7f at the fixture last year and has been lightly-raced subsequently. He's only 2lb higher and he'll be primed and ready to go despite a big weight. Laviniad looks well handicapped and could be suited by this drop in trip but Castle Bar Sling hasn't won for three years, though he's now on a 25lb lower mark.
