Verdict
Shantung is the only one of these who hasn't won over the trip and will probably find it on the short side. Maskada, who won at Hereford early last month when Full Of Surprises was a long way behind, has a big weight for a four-year-old but NORDICAN BLEUE has won here and at Newton Abbot and ran well for a long way on her belated return to action Fakenham. The latter gets the nod as Drewmain Legend's three victories over timber have all been at Class 5 level.
