Blessed Place won this last year but hasn't raced since August while it's a long time since Even Bolder visited the winner's circle. Grudge and Shostakovich have more to do than when successful at Wolverhampton last time, while Spic 'n Span's best form is on Fibresand. Diamond Johnny G and Rebecca Romero have been in decent form, however, and makes more appeal than Bath specialist Bateleur but the one to beat may be OUR PICCADILLY who only went down by a short-head to Titus Gent over 6f at Windsor 11 days ago and can race off the same mark here.
