Dynamic Drive is still 12lb higher than when successful over course and distance in October last year and is returning from a break. Perth third CARINENA has been racing over further but this is a stiff track and she did score over 2m at Musselburgh in November so gets the nod. Theatrical Style disappointed at Wetherby last month but is now fitted with blinkers so could bounce back. Lucinda Russell will also be hopeful of good runs from The Compeller and Where's Tiger with Ash Park likely to prove best of the rest.
