It's hard to make a strong case for any of these. Dandys Perier finished third over 7f here last time without threatening though he did have Redcar maiden winner, White Flag, well behind. BISCUITEER never looked like getting to grips with the winner when third over 5f at this track recently but gets the token vote to improve and confirm running with Modify in the process. Kopenhagen finished a bit closer last time and may prove best of the remainder in a pretty poor handicap.
