This looks a strong contest though those who witnessed the victory of CENTRED at Pontefract in mid-summer won't want to miss her from this spot in the weights. She's had a nice break and with the longer trip sure to suit can gain her third victory. Beacon Lady completed a four-timer with a victory on similar ground to this at Epsom but the assessor looks as though he's got to her. Sizzler could hardly have been more convincing when landing a course and distance handicap by 7l and though 10lb higher it will be a surprise if he's not in the shake-up. Chocala is progressing nicely and the more rain that falls the better as he stormed home over 2m on soft ground at Chester last month. Buchanan made a winning debut over 1m4f on Polytrack and found dropping down in trip against him at Pontefract so he's one to keep an eye on from his lowly mark.
