Gilly Grace, much improved when scoring last time, is a dangerous player off the minimum weight but OUT FOR JUSTICE impressed when taking a better race at Bangor last month and can follow up with the champion jockey booked. The selection is one of many on the card unproven on softened ground but does make appeal from a form perspective. Hardtorock was only narrowly beaten on his latest start after a break and the course winner is certainly worth a place on any shortlist for his in-form yard. Water Wagtail has plenty of weight to shoulder but comes into contention if producing the level of his penultimate start behind the prolific Coopers Square.
