Picket Line was the shock winner of this a year ago and is 2lb lower but has shown very little subsequently. AIR OF YORK has also won over the course and distance having gained the 12th victory of his career on the track earlier this month. He had Cent Flying four lengths behind that day but the latter was returning from a long break and may get closer despite being no better off. Raincall ran twice over a mile last season and makes her handicap debut after a much better run over this trip at Lingfield. Secret Potion is quite well handicapped but does better with a bit of cut in the ground.
