Magic Mirror steps up to this grade in a handicap for the first time and the course specialist is 9lb higher than when winning easily last month. Fast Track has gradually dropped to a mark he's capable of winning from and didn't get the best of runs at Wolverhampton last time. Spare Parts completed a four-timer in January and won again at Wolverhampton last month, though he's looked a few pounds high in his last couple of runs. TITAN GODDESS has improved out of all recognition since landing a Chelmsford seller, easily completing a double over a mile before finding 1m2f stretching her stamina last time. She has generally been leading at this trip and can get back to winning ways. Envisaging has been running well enough but probably needs to find a bit more.
