Who's Micky Brown ran well enough to make the frame over 2m in testing ground here last time. Mrsrobin was placed in a novice event at Warwick at the end of last year while Very Intense has notched up a string of placed efforts in handicaps, though has been returned a losing favourite the last twice. CRAIGANEE was beaten only a length in what looked a tougher contest at Exeter on New Year''s Day when ahead of a subsequent winner. Chris Down's charge should make a bold bid in this with Kudu Shine and Morestead Screamer others to consider.
