THE DUKKERER has been getting closer to ending a long run and found only one too good over track and trip on his latest start. James Given’s charge is preferred to Makhfar, who won at Chelmsford in November but has struggled to figure off a higher marks since. Moi Aussie recorded her only win so far over 7f here last year but she’s slipped back down the weights subsequently while Pivotal Dream landed a lowly Class 7 event here at the start of the year but was well beaten in this grade last time. Outlaw Torn is capable on his day but is hard to catch right.
