CALCULATING is a multiple winner on the Fibresand and he'll have needed a recent pipe-opener at Wolverhampton. Back on a winning mark here, he gets the nod. Hit The Switch is another who has done most of his winning at this track including when last seen in June. He may be a shade ring rusty on his return, however, while Marsh Warbler hasn't raced since March and the much improved hurdler may also be better for today's outing. C&D winner Baileys Agincourt is yet another returning from a lay-off, while Amazing Blue Sky and Lady Elsie both went close on the turf last time.
