Mick Easterby and Joanna Mason teamed-up to win this in 2016 and SPACE WAR has won two of his last three outings beating Queen Of Kalahari on both occasions. He escapes a penalty after landing an apprentices race at Nottingham and is preferred to La Cumparsita. The latter has been in good form over further but has yet to race over today’s trip while Magical Molly Joe’s earlier double came over 7f at Wolverhampton. Wensley went close when last at this venue and is worthy of consideration with Serena Brotherton on board while Royal Connoisseur and Letmestopyouthere have slid down the weights and are closely matched on latest running at Redcar.
