Menelik ended a long losing run when scoring over 6f last time but has won over the track and trip. Welsh Inlet was ahead of Bold Max when runner-up in a Class 7 event here recently while Major Muscari has been thereabouts over the winter without winning. Blackthorn Stick is back on the same mark as when scoring at Kempton last year but a chance is taken on RAISE THE GAME given he finished closer at Wolverhampton on his handicap debut and has more scope than most of these.
