Most of these are in reasonable form without actually winning. Hamis Al Bin has been placed in his last four races but has only scored once in 14 all-weather starts. Volito is also very consistent and got off the mark on an artificial surface after a dozen starts here on Wednesday. Reginald Claude should be respected as he gained a course and distance victory last month and didn't get the best of runs on his next start at Wolverhampton. ASSERTIVE AGENT gained her maiden success here in November and was returning from a couple of months off when beaten narrowly at Kempton. She was impeded when making her challenge and looks set for another victory off the same mark. Mossgo has been competing well in slightly better grade and isn't out of this despite a big weight.
