Most of these can be given a chance but the vote goes to the least exposed in WADIGOR. The latter made a winning start at Wolverhampton last month and is preferred to Little Lady Katie. She went close in a higher grade here recently but steps up in distance while Dolphin Village was placed over 1m4f on his latest start. Compton Mill and Rotherwick have claims having both finishing second over today’s trip on their latest outings while Ocean Eleven and Van Huysen have both only been raised 4lb for their recent wins at Yarmouth and Leicester respectively. Charismatic Man is not out of this either on his handicap debut.
