Slipper Satin is in the midst of a terrific run of form but she's shot up the weights as a result. NOBLE REACH enjoys a big turnaround in the weights than when runner-up to the top weight here in June and can come out on top today given she's gone close at Newcastle and Catterick since. Keep To The Beat is a long-standing maiden on the Flat but has won over hurdles this summer and veterans Weybridge Light and Snow Dancer can't be ignored. The three-year-old Dew Pond is getting plenty of weight but is looking woefully one-paced.
