Stripzee, one of three Tim Easterby entries, is the only course and distance winner in the line-up having won a seller in June and she was only beaten a head in a handicap here last month. ROSIE'S RETURN looks easily the best of Karl Burke's pair having won at Musselburgh in August and earned a mark of 77 after beaten a neck in a Catterick handicap last month. Her rider's claim may just give her the edge over Flash Betty, a dual all-weather winner and narrowly beaten at Pontefract last time though untested over this trip.
