ELUSIVE THOUGHT is steadily improving and makes his handicap debut after finishing second in a claimer at Lingfield. He had a subsequent dual winner behind on that occasion and is fancied to open his account in this. Warrant Officer only landed a seller earlier in the year but Una Bella Cosa finished closer at Southwell on her latest start. Richard Hughes picks up the ride on Elvin but the latter has a bit of improving to do if he's to figure, as do both Cherry Malotte and Pairumani Prince.
