DELLA MARE won a handicap here last year and finished runner-up in one of these lowly events at Chelmsford last time. She may prove good enough with an apprentice taking 5lb off her back on this occasion. Indian Affair finished in front of Pollinate when second in this grade at Wolverhampton while Independence Day placed at Southwell last week. Jack Ryan and Ocean Eyes are preferred of the rest.
