Verdict
This is probably a little more competitive than the first division but FOR SHIA AND LULA (NAP) is fancied to go one better than at Chelmsford in August given he's already won three times over this track and trip and can't get much lower in the weights. Moi Aussie is still 7lb higher than when successful over track and trip in April but has been running into form again lately. Secret Lightning's fourth at Chelmsford was a big step forward while Fossa could run into a place but Deben looked ready for a rest at Leicester last week when behind Mrs Biggs, who is making her all-weather debut today.
