Granite City Doc won a lower grade contest here last time and is 4lb higher today while Elixsoft scored over a mile here back in March and was placed over track and trip on her latest start. Bahkit returned a disappointing favourite over course and distance in April while the unexposed Glorious Jem was due to run at Leicester yesterday. AUTRETOT has yet to win for David O’Meara having switched yards in September but has slipped down the weights and after placing in a higher grade at Redcar last month when five lengths clear of the rest, he’s taken to make a winning debut on the all-weather.
