Strong Team has placed in both starts since scoring at Perth but is now 10lb higher and course regular Cherry Princess is also 10lb higher than when scoring over track and trip in June. Xpo Universel had Wazowski back in third when winning at Cartmel last month but should have done better back at the same track last time and a chance is taken on TICKERTY BOO (NAP). Brian Ellison’s mare has failed to figure over longer trips since finishing a close-up third over course and distance back in May and should be sharper for last month’s return from a lay-off.
