Several have been competing over further including Bollin Ted, who scored over 1m2f here last month before finishing behind Graceful Act in one of these events back at this venue. John Caesar was also behind the latter here last time and had earlier found Bob's Girl too good over track and trip. Straight Ash has a shout partnered by a leading amateur in Simon Walker but ABUSHAMAH goes well here, having won over a slightly shorter distance at the track in May, and he gets the vote with Emily Bullock’s 5lb allowance helping his cause.
