Commissar carries a penalty for winning over a mile last Saturday but has also won over 1m4f. Travelling went close at this venue in between a couple of modest efforts, but Top Diktat will find this tougher than the claimer he won over 1m3f here recently. Ssafa has claims after scoring over track and trip on her latest start in November and the inconsistent Kelpie Blitz could make the frame on a going day. But TRIPLE CHOCOLATE gets a speculative vote on his first start since December given he won his maiden over 7f at this track and is expected to appreciate the longer trip.
