The penultimate race on the card is a Hunter Chase and ELIZA DOALOTT can go in ahead of Pen Gwen and One Five Eight. The selection has been very progressive winning four of its last starts. It beat Pen Gwen on its latest start and again can see that one off even on this quicker going. One Five Eight may prove the biggest danger to the selection. He only has three lbs to find with the Eliza Doalott and first time cheek pieces may bring out some further improvement
