Moving Robe finally won a maiden race when successful here last time. Tilly Devine is less exposed but has to prove her shock 100/1 success over track and trip earlier this month was no fluke. Satchville Flyer went close at Wolverhampton last week but has yet to threaten on this surface though Candesta has been placed here in the past. ST PATRICK’S DAY has been struggling over longer trips but he landed a course and distance double last year off much higher marks. He may well return to form back over a mile today and gets a speculative vote.
