Little Choosey is a consistent type at this level and has a course and distance victory to his credit though he's 8lb higher. BLING KING scored over slightly shorter here last summer and has been running well enough to get the nod in a moderate contest though The Lock Master's victory at Southwell last month was the 17th of a long career and he can never be written off. Sakhalin Star has been in good form but has a strike-rate of 2-60 so is overlooked while it's a very long time since Frontline Phantom won a race though he did show a bit more last time. Tony Carroll has only recently acquired Its A Sheila Thing and he'll be finding a race for her before long.
