MISTER MANANNAN returned to winning ways over track and trip last week. He carries 6lb extra for this but won off a higher mark at the track last year and Dandy Nicholls' charge can confirm running with Mey Blossom and go in again. Rich Again beat Flash City at Haydock earlier this month and the latter has since gone close at Musselburgh. Ace Master scored over 6f at Doncaster last week but his only previous win over the minimum trip came in heavy ground. Emjayem is one of the least exposed but needs to dig a bit deeper off his current mark.
