Lucinda Russell has a good strike rate here and the Kinross handler can add to her tally with Lauderdale. The son of Sula Bula failed to last home over 20f last time but had previously scored easily in testing conditions at Kelso before finishing a close second at Doncaster and is still fairly weighted on a 2lb higher mark than the latter occasion. Xaipete hinted at a return to form last time and is on a winning mark so has to be feared while June's River is another to consider after recent placed efforts. Ulusaba returns to chasing on a fair mark but has a near four-month absence to overcome while Caitriona's Choice faces no easy task under top weight.
