Verdict
Having won only one of his previous 32 starts, Welease Bwian ended last year with a double. Run It Twice tries his hand at sprinting again having won over a mile here last time while Dark Lane popped up in a claimer over 5f at Wolverhampton last week. The veteran One Way Or Another is not easily dismissed and dual course and distance winner Lujeanie slipped down the weights last year. MONSIEUR ROYALE found things happening too quickly dropped back to 5f last time but scored over track and trip before that and gets a speculative vote in what looks something of a lottery.
