Grammar won this in 2013 but hasn't raced since that year. Midnight Warrior has posted a couple of modest efforts either side of scoring over a longer trip at Redcar while Different Scenario is 13lb higher than her win at Southwell in January. OLD FASHION has yet to win but has been getting closer as she slips down the weights and it could be the turn of Mike Appleby's filly today after making the frame in a couple of higher grade handicaps last month. Ghostly Arc ran well enough when third here in May and could be in the mix.
