Verdict
Plenty with claims in an open contest. Atwix scored twice over 1m2f here last year but has her first start since October and Knight Music returns to action having won three times over today's trip last year, including one at this venue. Le Notre is another making a reappearance but he went close over track and trip in December while Celestial Bay and Karnage have both won this year and are preferred to Kelly's Finest. QUALITY SONG has gone close in all three subsequent starts since winning at Wolverhampton in November and Richard Hughes' charge may come out best in this dropping back down a grade.
