Recent Pontefract winner Zeshov and Fieldsman, who scored over track and trip last week, have to carry 6lb extra today. The Warrior failed to cope under a penalty at Lingfield having won at the same track earlier with Agar's Plough back in fifth. Zaajer is dropped back down in distance having failed to threaten at Wolverhampton when starting joint-favourite while the unexposed Chloris may improve now handicapping for the first time. DE VEGAS KID (NAP) struggled upped in class at Epsom last time but recorded a double at this venue last month and should make another bold bid despite a rise in the weights given Tony Carroll’s charge scored by six lengths on his latest visit.
