Mischief Managed completed a double in May and has continued to perform with credit, though he’s 6lb higher than his latest victory. Desert Dream won on soft ground over this trip at Carlisle and has to be respected from 3lb higher while Zeshov has won around here though has never on ground with give. Archie won a Class 4 handicap at Brighton and is still well handicapped though he doesn’t win very often while Gibeno is still a maiden amd ran poorly at Chepstow last time. EQUIANO SPRINGS won three times at the backend of last year, including a victory here. He returned to form in a better class handicap here last time and can return to winning ways.
