Be Kool is penalised for a recent win at Epsom but is unproven on today’s going while it was soft ground when the unexposed Al Hawraa posted her only poor effort so far at Doncaster in July. Henry The Explorer and Primobella have been thereabouts over longer trips but the former was due to run here yesterday while Redcar winner Reinforced and Sophie P step up from 7f. Rosamaria has a chance on her earlier placed efforts over today’s distance and it was soft ground when Maulesden May won at Redcar back in April but FIREDANSER gets a speculative vote having dropped 8lb down the weights this year and finishing closer at Carlisle on his latest start.
