Most of these are track winners with Pulse Of Shanghai having won four times here, though never over this far. Dual course winner Bucky Larson is on a long losing run but is gradually dropping to a winnable mark while Elzaam Blue returned here with a very good run three weeks ago. RANSOM finished just in front in that latter event on just his second start here. A dual Polytrack winner in the UK, he can benefit from Daniel King's 7lb claim and take this. Angel Girl hasn't had much racing since landing a maiden here in February while Queens Command landed a Fairyhouse maiden in good style last month.
