Chimeric lost his maiden tag at the 31st time of asking when sent to Newcastle in February. Astrophysicist is a course and distance winner on soft ground but that was a long time ago while Dragon Roll's sole success came on Turf over 7f here back in 2018. SHONA MEA has a course and distance victory to her credit from a higher mark and was running quite well at Dundalk at the backend of last year so gets the nod. Zaghraf has been punted a couple of times so must be thought capable of better and is fit from a run over timber. Cleopatra's Needle would have to be considered if getting a run.
