It was heavy going when Mudawwan won at Catterick a fortnight ago and he’s 4lb higher. Redzone has been thereabouts over 6f recently but Mango Chutney finished runner-up over track and trip on his penultimate start and is preferred. HIGHFIELD PRINCESS showed a big improvement handicapping for the first time at Doncaster and not beaten far in third. An apprentice takes 5lb off her back today and that could give John Quinn’s filly the edge. Redesdale Rebel posted his best effort to date at Musselburgh a couple of days ago and Twisted Dreams is one to keep an eye on now handicapping.
