SHESADABBER won this in 2020 and was third last year. She arrives on the back of winning at Chepstow and another bold bid looks likely in an open contest. Birdie Bowers has won two of his last three starts while Basholo went close at Newcastle last time and Zig Zag Zyggy finally showed some improvement for a slide down the weights when placing over 6f here. Eruption and Captain Corcoran are not out of this either.
