Ask Peter is a 12-race maiden but she drops into this lowly grade for the first time and her regular rider's claim is a bonus. Grand Duchess Olga has moved stables and her best run came on firm going while Time In Motion was beaten a long way when well supported at Yarmouth though fast ground was said to be the reason for the poor effort and connections will be looking for compensation. Buford hasn't been running badly without quite getting there, a remark that also applies to MAD ARTYMAISE, whose latest run when staying on over slightly shorter at Hamilton could be good enough. Lechro may prove best of the remainder.
