A competitive-looking handicap in which most would have some sort of chance. Normandie Lady tries a new trip but Archie's Advice and The Wee Barra are both course and distance winners and the former arrives of the back of a game victory on an easy surface at Ayr. The Lynch Man also got back to winning ways at Ayr last time while Muroor and Fidelma Moon are running well enough to get involved. TOBOGGAN'S FIRE (NAP) has been thereabouts in his last two and won on heavy going at Redcar in the spring. Only 2lb higher now, Ann Duffield's three-year-old looks the pick of the weights today.
