Recent winners Loyal Royal and Fleetwoodsands face no easy task off their new marks from their respective wins at Lingfield and over course and distance two outings ago so look best left out of calculations. John Quinn's Fantasy Fighter has claims on the pick of his form but seems a shade high in the weights and more solid claims are probably held by Mrs Boss. Rod Millman's filly only has a Lingfield maiden race win to her name from 20 starts but she has been running consistently well and should be thereabouts again but looks booked for a place at best once more. The vote then goes the way of Alan McCabe's TAMARIND HILL, who can race off the same mark as when successful at Pontefract in June, goes well on this surface and he looks worth siding with.
