Wildcat Wizard finished ahead of Toby Tyler when fourth at Redcar last Tuesday and will be taking advantage of his tumble down the weights soon. Hills Of Dakota is back on a winning mark for the first time this year but dual C&D winner Who's Shirl has been on a decent mark for a while without getting any closer. The veteran Zomerlust does most of his winning in plating company nowadays and it could be the turn of BARKSTON ASH today. He went close at Hamilton on his penultimate start and won at the same track the last time he raced in this grade.
