Logi won twice over course and distance last month but has gone up a further 5lb and steps up a grade for this. AFANDEM ran well behind Dalton over track and trip last week. He is well drawn again and, racing off the same mark, looks sure to be in the firing-line. Aleef was engaged yesterday at Thirsk but Zylan is interesting back on the mark off which he won on his only previous visit here and Tony Hamilton won twice on stablemate Muatadel last year. Economic Crisis doesn’t win very often while Mr Orange and Katheefa need to rediscover their best form.
