Fuwayrit makes his handicap debut on a hat-trick after wins at Ayr and Chelmsford. He has a good draw and is unlikely to be far away but there are also possibilities about Ayr fourth Keep Busy while We're Reunited has been knocking on the door. Heer We Go Again, Stone Soldier and Winning Streak were all winners last time, though the former hasn’t raced since early May. William Haggas’ juveniles boast an excellent strike-rate here and ST IVES has been keeping decent company since winning a Doncaster maiden in July. Cheekpieces are fitted here and he can make the most of a good draw.
