Can't Remember, Lisdonagh House and I'M DELILAH are the three for the shortlist here, with I'm Delilah looking to have a clear chance. Lisdonagh House has run respectably at Newcastle and Southwell in novice contests, and will need to have come on for those runs to play a part here. However, this is a contest lacking in depth and he can reach the frame. Can't Remember had to drop to selling grade to land his first win, and he ran well in a novice affair last time before tiring. He can give the selection most to do. After two sound efforts in defeat, I'm Delilah landed his first success at Catterick, and upped to handicap company at Kelso recently, ran well to finish a close second. That form gives him an outstanding chance here, and I'm Delilah can score.
