Low-grade fare and it's a question of going with established form or untapped potential. The trio in the latter category include Taswara, but more especially Flammable and Portoro, both of whom are making their respective handicap bows and any market support for either would need to be taken seriously in such a modest affair. However, BRABUSACH has been hitting the frame with regularity and seeks to put an end to a sequence of creditable runner-up efforts and is taken to get his head in front with a first-time visor applied to aid his cause and Luke Morris booked. Dame Laura Knight is noted as she's significantly upped in trip and has shown glimpses of form previously.
