PRIZE FIGHTING found one too good at Nottingham in first-time cheekpieces and returns to the all-weather with decent claims in this modest company. Moxy Mares’ earlier win came on the Turf course at Lingfield and he’s yet to score on the all-weather while Northbound debuts on this surface having posted a string of better efforts at Thirsk. Keep Right On placed over 7f at Wolverhampton last time still looking for his first win.
