Gaelic Ice won at Chepstow in August on her only start in 2014 and is 6lb higher on her reappearance. Moulin Rouge is up 4lb for scoring by a neck over 1m2f at Lingfield, while Crown Pleasure has been placed over shorter trips at Wolverhampton of late and could figure. Sandy Cove went close off a higher mark at Brighton last term and BOWSERS BOLD was beaten by less than a length when runner-up over 1m3f here on his latest start. The latter gets another chance to finally open his account in this.
