Both of SMART VIOLETTA's recent wins came at Hamilton and she looks to be getting off lightly with a 6lb penalty here. She ran out a clear winner last week and the handicapper is likely to have his say after today. Wom produced his best effort so far when third at Brighton last time and is dropping down a grade, while Kodicil has claims on his second over C&D in May. Catterick winner One Of Twins is another to consider and Playful Girl isn't without a chance judged on her earlier win at Ripon.
