Verdict

Ereka got off the mark at the 17th time of asking here last month but it was a very poor race and she's up 3lb, as is Do More Business despite being beaten at Lingfield last time. Hubood makes her handicap debut and has shown a bit of potential but Buxton couldn't cope with a 6lb rise at Lingfield last time. DIPLOMATIC has few miles on the clock for his age and appears to be improving. He had to battle to complete a double here last month but looks capable of completing a hat-trick if in that kind of mood again. Fortunate Bid has an absence to overcome but has possibilities on his form at this time a year ago.
