Winning form is in short supply. Rasselas scored over a mile at Newcastle last month but has been well beaten in subsequent starts. INGLEBY SPRING has slipped 8lb down the weights since her first start in a handicap and after a third over track and trip a fortnight ago, the Fahey filly gets a token vote. Salma Gondis could go well back over 7f and stablemate Second Cut moves in the opposite direction as he steps up from 6f. Both trip and ground should suit Irish challenger Cash Or Casualty but Monel looks to be treading water off his current mark.
