Stosur has won this for the past two years and is now 8lb lower than a year ago which gives him a fine chance of completing a hat-trick. RED TEA has been improving fast and though up 7lb for last week's victory at Newmarket she arrives here with a 6lb penalty and looks ready to claim her hat-trick. Patanjali is up 3lb for winning a poor Yarmouth handicap and will find this tougher but World's Greatest landed a Newmarket handicap at slightly lower level and wasn't disgraced when racing in a higher class handicap at Yarmouth last time. Neither of the remaining pair can be dismissed in a tight little handicap.
