Placed at Chelmsford last time, DISTANT APPLAUSE won his only previous start at this lowly level and was narrowly beaten over course and distance earlier in the year. Drop Kick Murphi went close over 7f in this grade last week while Es Que Magic has been thereabouts over the same trip here recently. Tilsworth Rose was beaten only a neck in a classified contest last month but Maid Millie looks no nearer winning judged on recent efforts and Delegate The Lady is less exposed.
