Course and distance winner Available couldn't be more consistent if she tried in a race in which all eight declared have a distance win to their name. However, John Mackie's mare seems to have been in the grip of the assessor for some time and is really struggling to get her head in front and faces a tough ask now against a couple of interesting Newmarket raiders. New Strategy seemed to be going the right way until running no sort of race when sent off favourite at Doncaster and much better is expected here, whereas, in contrast, TAJATHUB (NAP) followed up a pleasing debut effort behind Peterhof at Lingfield last season by always controlling a Kempton maiden. He's on a fair mark for this handicap debut and Paul Hanagan travels on from York to take his only ride on the card on the Dunlop inmate.
