LUSCIFER was well beaten here before winning at Wolverhampton but gets another chance given the weakness of today’s opposition. General Joe’s best effort so far this year came at Wolverhampton last month while River Sprite won at Newcastle earlier. Lara Silvia steps up in trip while Saline Bay and Pearl Of India may do better now handicapping for the first time.
