Meagher's Flag edges this is at the weights but was well beaten at Wolverhampton when last in plating company. MISS ELSA has a bit to find with the latter on these terms but arrives in much better form having won a handicap over track and trip last time - she looks the one to side with in this company. Vipin has a shout on a recent second at Wolverhampton but Zoffany Bay remains out of sorts along with Doctor Jazz and Narjes.
