It could pay to stick with DENNIS as he makes his handicap debut. Beaten less than a length over track and trip last time, he won't need to improve much on that to open his account. Absolute Diamond also has leading claims on the back of a victory over course and distance, although she beat little of consequence on that occasion hence only a 2lb rise in the weights. Unassailable finished closer at Lingfield last time but Clock On Tom looks a bigger danger if rediscovering his best.
