Billy Booth will no doubt be in the mix again as he bids for a hat-trick but several unexposed types are handicapping for the first time including stablemate Capla Demon. The latter was runner-up at Thirsk in April while Moon Song and Praxedis are others with form in novice company. SWEET AND DANDY won a novices' race at Lingfield earlier and went close again at the same track last time when clear of the rest. She may prove good enough in this with the likes of Airshow and Summerseat Mist more exposed types with a shout.
