The only winner in the field, Moonlit Harbour looks the one to beat, despite his penalty. He turned in a solid effort in defeat last time, where he wasn't suited by the steady early pace. Ambience attracted support at Hereford last time,but was somewhat disappointing. He looks to have something to prove, while Cool Degree is sure to have learnt plenty from his debut at Carlisle. He will be better suited to the drying ground and looks a prime candidate for the frame. Lehmans Lot, who is out of a maiden mare, looks to have a touch of the slows. Of the newcomers Steppes Of Gold is bred along flat lines, being by Moscow Society, out of a He Loves Me mare, while the Irish pair Oodachee, who is by Marju, out of a Blakeney mare, and Nikita's Gift, by Topanoora out of a maiden Lafontaine mare are ones to keep an eye on in the market.
