Caustic Love has had a fine campaign, scoring three times including at a higher level at Ripon, though the handicapper may have hold of her judging by a moderate latest run. Dream World has also won three times this year though wouldn't want the ground to ease further while Sarvi won easily on heavy going here last month. Lady Alavesa ran her best race for a while at Ripon last time but Kermouster's winning run came to an end at Musselburgh and she's now looking high in the weights. WELCOMING hasn't won since her two-year-old days but but is 3lb lower than when beaten a short-head at Beverley in July and that kind of form could see her successful here.
