Monjeni drops down in trip having failed to threaten when second over 2m at Chelmsford but Another Lincolnday ended a long losing run with a success over 2m1f at Pontefract last time. La Bacouetteuse is another dropping in distance after a couple of placed efforts but Major Rowan moves in the opposite direction having scored easily over 1m4f at Newcastle last month. TRANSPENNINE STAR was placed over today’s trip at Carlisle in July and was beaten less than a length at Ayr last time. There should be more to come from him on only his third start handicapping so Michael Dods’ charge gets the vote.
