Decent Fella bids to add to his Yarmouth success off a 6lb higher mark but other make more appeal today. Klynch is one with the leading lady amateur booked as Ruth Carr's charge is now a pound lower than when successful on the Fibresand in April. Mambo Spirit and Iceblast are recent winners while Lothair is running well enough to get involved. MERCERS ROW was far from disgraced in a big field at Redcar last time and this looks a lot less competitive. Gemma Tutty has been on board for his last two victories and he should take all the beating as the likely fast pace will suit.
