Verdict
SIR LAURENCE GRAFF was caught close home in a maiden here recently but looks likely to improve now handicapping and gets another chance. Dawn Vega, Dartman and Al Hargah are others making their handicap debuts and all step up in trip but Forceful Speed won a nursery at Wolverhampton and went in again in novice company last time. Orchestra won over a mile at Pontefract while Nottingham runner-up Shahbaz is preferred to There's The Door over today’s trip.
