Robert Cowell does well with his sprinters and CATS EYES should be followed until beaten. She's climbed the handicap after wins at Bath and Nottingham but the useful Nathan Alison takes off 5lb here and a hat-trick beckons. The stable also field Jwala but he makes his seasonal reappearance under top weight while Electric Qatar, representing the in-form Tom Dascombe, has a 6lb penalty for a first success on the Polytrack and was behind the selection at Bath earlier. Wild Sauce is consistent and looks the pick of the remainder with Sunrise Dance still a maiden and having her first start since before Christmas.
