ALIZEE DE JANEIRO won a Class 4 handicap over 2m here a fortnight ago. Lucinda Russell's mare has been raised 10lb but should confirm running with the fifth Beechroad Ally in this lower grade and can go in again. Hatton Springs also drops in class after a third at Sedgefield and can get involved but it's hard to make a decent case for any of the remainder in their current form unless Paddy's Yarn improves now handicapping for the first time.
