Zapper Cass has won here in the past but all his recent winning form has been at Southwell. STEELRIVER is another with a decent chance on these terms and having easily won a seller over track and trip last time, is fancied to go in again. Green Door could go well dropping down to this level and finished ahead of Something Lucky when going close over the minimum trip at Lingfield but Cool Strutter and Stopdworldnletmeof are hard to recommend on such unfavourable terms.
