HOME BEFORE DUSK has yet to oblige on Turf but is 2-6 on the all-weather and both wins have arrived here. The Dalgleish inmate battled back bravely to score on his latest start over this trip and looks a likely contender again, despite a 4lb rise in the weights. Lightning Attack was below par latest but previous consistent efforts bring him into contention off a workable mark and the reliable Railport Dolly should not be discounted as she makes a first-ever start on the all-weather as her Turf form at this trip entitles her to strong consideration. Algaffaal should get involved off top weight and the unexposed Skerryvore will relish the drop in trip.
