Can't Remember, back to form when runner-up to Real Treasure at Ffos Las 10 days ago, is the obvious starting point. Alison Thorpe's mare races off the same mark here. ROSSBRIN boasts a similar level of form, however, and caught the eye in an amateurs' race at Catterick last month when held up off the pace. Improvement is expected on that run over this longer trip and Anna Brooks' charge is possibly the one to beat here. Jordan was a decent fourth in a better race at Folkestone last month and looks the pick of the remainder ahead of top weight Dundry.
