Khatwah has been racing over shorter and makes a quick reappearance after a fair effort over 6f here on Friday. First Lott hasn't won since September 2020 and was beaten seven lengths into second here last time while Apatite appears to have lost his way after landing a Newcastle maiden over a mile a year ago. Got The Moves has finished last in her three latest starts so the choice is ALGHEED, who hasn't been beaten far in stronger company at Lingfield and Southwell the last twice and is just 2lb higher than when scoring on the former track in August.
