MAYYASAH is getting closer as she slips further down the weights and is taken to record her first handicap success having finished runner-up over track and trip last time. Well beaten at Newmarket recently, Apex King is not out of this back on the all-weather and neither is Air Of York, second here last time and racing off the same mark today. Grey Galleon attempts 7f for the first time but Roman Spinner has won here in the past and Waqaas may improve today with a tongue-tie added for the first time.
