Ink In Gold, The Fairy Flag and Trysting Grove are all recent winners and will have their supporters here, and we take Trysting Grove to complete the hat-trick. The selection won over a furlong shorter here last time, but should have no problems with this trip, having won over it on good to soft at Chepstow the time before. Now 10lb higher than the first of those wins, he should still be capable of landing this with conditions to his liking and can find enough to score. Ink In Gold shoulders topweight and was a winner off a mark of 40 here over course and distance last week. He was unable to compete off a stone higher mark at Wolverhampton last time, but back down 7lb again he can be more competitive. The Fairy Flag is not particularly well treated after a neck defeat of Galey River over a 1m 6f at Wolverhampton last time, but she can again go well, but Trysting Grove is in great heart and can complete the hat-trick here.
