Ten of these are course winners including Mullacash Buzz, who has a 6lb penalty for a 66/1 shock over the trip on Friday. Caesar's Comet is 1-28 around here but is rarely beaten far in this sort of company though finished just behind Tony The Gent when a close fourth to Indiana Grey over a mile a week ago. DESIGNER CAILIN has really found her form here and though up 8lb for her latest success the runner-up won next time so the form looks strong enough for this. Rosie Rock has a weight pull with the selection on their last run but didn't appear to go through with her effort in the closing stages.
