Outer Space travels up from South Wales off the back of decent runs at Lingfield and Chester and is one for the short-list in this, though is poorly drawn. GROUPIE got no run last time at Chester and has dropped to a very tempting mark. Tom Tate’s filly should be a working man’s price so gets the vote ahead of Mango Chutney, second in this last year and in good form again. Mudawwan can’t be ignored and neither can last month’s Wolverhampton third Chaplin Bay. Etikaal made all over 6f at Pontefract last time and has won over this trip on Polytrack. Rose Marmara is two from two here but will do well to extend that winning run today.
