Transmit is proving hard to win with even off his current mark and was a beaten short-priced favourite at Wolverhampton last Friday. BIRD DOG makes more appeal as he landed a handicap over 5f here last time having won his maiden over C&D last month and looks more likely to run his race. Gracie's Gift was beaten a length over track and trip last time with Ridgeway Hawk behind and should be thereabouts again, while it only looks a matter of time before First In Command takes advantage of a slide down the weights.
