Twennyshortkid won at Musselburgh on his penultimate start but needs more here off a 6lb higher mark, while Comrade Bond posted a better effort at Brighton three weeks ago and he could figure. Stilettoesinthemud has been placed in maiden company over C&D and Dan's Martha has scope for improvement, but the vote goes to ALENSGROVE. Paul Midgely's filly has been placed in higher grade races the last twice and can finally got off the mark back at this level. Deliberation looks best of the rest.
