WENSLEYDALE WEB, Lindseyfield Lodge and Ras Laffan are the three to look at here, with Wensleydale Web a sporting selection in a low grade affair. Ras Laffan is still a maiden but has shaped well in sellers previously, twice finishing runner-up. His effort last time was a decent one, and in a race as weak as this comes into calculations. Lindseyfield Lodge took this race last year, but has been winless since. However, he showed signs of a return to form over the course and distance last time and can go well. Wensleydale Web chased home Lindseyfield Lodge here last year, and also in a recent contest, but is 6lbs better off for a six length beating. His front running style on this quickening ground can see Wensleydale Web come home in front.
