Onebaba won over track and trip recently but faces tougher opposition today including IT MUST BE FAITH. Mick Appleby’s veteran has been in fine form over the winter and went close again here last time with Glorious Charmer behind. Tan finished runner-up in a lowly classified event here while Dynamo Walt placed over 5f at the track having tumbled down the weights. Poetry And Art is the least exposed but ran a shocker at Chelmsford on her handicap debut and drops down to today’s trip for the first time.
