This is moderate and shouldn't take much winning so the market could prove a guide. Mississippilanding finds himself at the top of the weights on his handicap debut with just one modest effort earning him a mark of 93. Ultra Light won a handicap at Bangor in July but was sent chasing before a poor run back over timber at Tipperary last week. CARLYAN (NAP) probably found the minimum trip too short at Gowran last time and would just about be good enough for this on his previous starts over further so she's handed the vote. Flying Bella has dropped to a lowly mark though a strike-rate of 1-24 isn't encouraging and though the four-year-old Trainspotting looked as though a race like this would soon come his way when third in a handicap over 2m2f here last month he was beaten back in maiden company at Tramore last week and may need more time.
