This is little better than a seller and will not take much winning. The blinkers brought about an improved showing from Ball Games last time, when he proved he is effective over this track in similar conditions and he must go well. Lemarate, has shown bits and pieces of form on the All-Weather and wouldn't be without a chance on his best form. A chance is taken with Fudge Brownie, who never got competitve in a seller at Ripon over the weekend. He has an excellent chance on his run here last month, when runner-up behind Swing Of The Tide and he can race off a 2lb lower mark in this.
