Bix remains in dire form and GOOD EVANS is likely to start a short price in this company. Tom Dascombe's colt has gone close on his last couple of outings, including a second over course and distance last month, and he's the one to beat with a repeat. Multi Fours fifth at this track in November was her best effort to date but she's still preferred to Dutch Delight and Firey Sally, who have done nothing so far.
