Yet another large-field, low-grade affair for punters to wrestle with and hardly the ideal 'getting-out stakes.' Richard Guest's string have started to come good after a quiet period and ANOTHER SITUATION is expected to go well for the yard on the back of two much-improved performances of late and the move back up to a sixth furlong seems sure to suit. Cliff was back to winning ways the last day after tumbling down the weights but that success arrived on soft ground at Thirsk and conditions will be different here according to the forecast. He remains of interest though and is on the shortlist. Sandkissed is 0-8 but the best of her form would see her competitive off a lowly mark of 45 and hold-up ride, Nifty Niece, could be involved if getting the run of the race.
