Lalania has just one victory to her name so far and has been raised a pound for a recent third over 6f here, though this won’t take much winning. Nampara was making a belated seasonal reappearance when caught in the shadows of the post over course and distance two weeks ago. She’s gone up 2lb but has every chance of going one better if that run has blown away the cobwebs. Time To Reason could figure if on a going day and Princess Keira is back over 5f for the first time since winning at Newmarket in July. ROUNDABOUT MAGIC has disappointed the last twice but can’t get much lower in the weights and this is usually his time of year – Simon Dow’s charge could go well at a price in a race like this.
