Shearian was sold for 6000gns after landing a Ripon seller and has joined Tracy Waggott, who does well with her runners here. Marhaba Malayeen has shown nothing in three starts since his Redcar victory but can now race from a lower mark as a consequence. INGLEBY SYMPHONY went up 8lb for an easy victory at Nottingham last month but again ran well in a much better handicap at Doncaster. With Lee Topliss still able to claim 3lb, Richard Fahey's charge looks set for another victory. Wellingrove produced one really good effort at Epsom last year though was otherwise moderate but Causeway Foot was battling on over 1m2f here last month when failing to obtain a clear run so could do better.
