Aces, six-times a winner on Turf, is 0-7 on the all-weather and his best recent form has been at Wolverhampton. Bernie's Boy has won 10 races in all and goes on any surface. He's only 2lb higher than when scoring at Wolverhampton earlier this month while Kingsley Klarion is up the same amount from his last victory at Chelmsford in October. FARD's last visit here resulted in a victory that same month and he's since been going well at Wolverhampton. He looks on a fair mark, taking Laura Pearson's claim into account, and can get back on the winning trail.
