A winner over 6f here last month, Chizz De Biz failed to cope with a 4lb rise last time. Bombshell Bay was well beaten when runner-up over track and trip but finished closer when third at Leicester recently and Valerie's Memory posted a better effort at Bath last time. Patty Patch is another with a shout but ELITE SHADOW has tumbled 12lb down the weights since the start of the year and gets a speculative vote back down in class today.
