UNASHAMED has previously won on the all-weather and was beaten only a length at Thirsk on his reappearance. That’s the strongest recent form on offer and he should have no problem confirming running with Impressor, Classy Al and Fircombe Hall. Kats Bob completed a double over 7f last year, including a victory at this track, while Brazen Belle drops down in class but Stronsay still looks high enough in the weights.
