Claude Greenwood won an amateurs' race over course and distance last time with Skywards Miles well beaten. Master Of Song scored over a mile here earlier and has also won over 1m2f before while Thou Swell has been placed at the track on more than occasion though remains without a win. ASTRA HALL is looking to win her first race for a while and it looks only a matter of time now off her current mark as she went close again despite finishing only fourth at Wolverhampton last week. She is taken to land an uninspiring handicap.
