DOMINATING had a run here in September and has improved in his last two starts at Kempton, so a 6lb rise for his victory there last week is insignificant as a 7lb claimer has been booked. Paddy McDonald, who rode him that day, is on board the stable's La Vie En Rose who makes her handicap debut after moderate form in maidens. Booshbash is making slow progress but was only headed in the closing stages over a mile at Kempton while a first time visor and longer trip nay help to galvanise Oxford Blu. Siyahambra has started at massive prices in his last two runs on this track but did show a bit more dash last month.
