A low draw on the straight course here can be a disadvantage when there are plenty of runners so we'll ignore the claims of Great Expectations, Verus Delicia and Costa Filey on this occasion. Pensax Lad is eased in grade, however, while Caminel shouldn't be far away despite disappointing last month at Leicester. Wotnot should be winning soon and Suitsus is starting to look well handicapped but RIGOLLETO only found one too good off this mark at Leicester last month and can be forgiven his run in a ladies' race at Carlisle subsequently - he should have no excuses here.
