Harmonic Lady made a belated racecourse debut in May on soft ground at Ripon and landed a maiden at 50/1 but hasn't been seen since. MOCCASIN finished runner-up in this a year ago and returned to form on soft ground at Carlisle last time. He's looking well treated these days and is handed the vote in a tricky finale. Endless Credit has been disappointing since landing a Newmarket maiden last summer but Ty Gwyr has a real chance despite a big weight as he's run very well on his last two starts in better company than this.
