There is little in the way of winning form to go on and Weld Al Khawaneej has been beaten off today's mark since scoring at Ayr in September. Arctic Flower returned a losing favourite over 5f last time and My Best Song went close over 6f at Chelmsford recently. Lilly Bonbon finished closer at Brighton last time and goes handicapping for the first time along with Dylantelle, Lady Lloyd and Frozen Force. But a token vote goes to another handicap debutant in TRUST THE MAN, well beaten in better company at Newmarket last time but placed at Salisbury before that. Nomadic also drops in class and may finish closer.
