Nuance is proving headstrong and failed to settle when running out of stream at Newbury on his handicap debut. ANIMATO shares ownership with the latter but with improvement expected on his handicap bow having won a novices' race at Musselburgh, David O’Meara’s colt gets the vote. Albegrey and Autumn Angel are others handicapping for the first time but Mojomaker is preferred dropping down in class while Rosie's Return found one too good when sent off favourite at Carlisle and returns to 7f.
