Dodaa, Ask No More and Prime Recreation look the trio to concentrate upon in this trappy affair and we are with Dodaa. Noel Wilson's team continue in good form and the booking of Ashley Hamblett appears to be a big positive in the context of this race. The five-year-old was not disgraced in handicap company last time out and shouldn't be far away here. Ask No More has to overcome a poor draw. He perhaps isnt quite as able as he once was but the assessor has dropped him in the weights accordingly. Prime Recreation needs no introduction to followers of low grade sprints. He is capable but his better form has obtained at Kempton in the past. Dotty's Daughter has an interesting jockey booking. She didn't make use of a good draw last time out and she will reoppose Orchestration and Blushing Russian. She's Our Beauty has had the benefit of a recent run and has gone in at plating levels in the past. A moderate opener and Dodaa looks best of an ordinary bunch.
