DIXIE GWALIA won this last year from just 3lb lower and with her young rider claiming 7lb and ground conditions in her favour she looks set to repeat the process. Mucky Molly has plenty going for her in that she will love the trip and testing conditions though she's now on her highest ever mark. See The Storm was just half-a-length behind her at Brighton and with a 5lb pull has to go close along with Novalist, who scored over the C&D on soft going in July. Hatta Stream is much better on the all-weather though is handicapped accordingly and shouldn't be dismissed along with Plum Bay, though the latter's only success came on fast ground.
