One Step Beyond has managed five all-weather victories including two here while Uther Pendragon initiated a hat-trick when scoring here last month though has shot up the weights as a result. Kardinya is paying his first visit here but arrives in top form having scored at Wolverhampton and he's only 4lb higher. GOLDSMITH changed stables before his track and trip victory last month and has only been raised 2lb. He had Land Of Eagles almost two lengths behind and should confirm the form. Hashtagmetoo has been racing in slightly higher class and is finally getting some relief from the assessor.
