A winner over hurdles this year, Hi Dancer went close over 2m here recently and could figure once again. However, SRIMENANTI is less exposed and having posted her best effort so far when second in testing ground at Hamilton last month, Brian Rothwell's filly looks set to open her account. Cadgers Brig can be given a chance on his third over today's trip at Redcar in August and Maslak has claims on the best of his form. Shirls Son Sam has shown a bit more of late and could also be thereabouts along with Drawback.
