Our Manekineko made a successful raid over track and trip in February and is only 3lb higher while Ubla also won over course and distance before struggling over a longer trip here. Traveller was placed yet again on his latest start and gets a change of headgear while Energia Flavio was beaten a length in a higher grade here last time. But ABUSHAMAH wasn’t far behind having failed to get a clear run in the closing stages and may well reverse running today as that was his first outing since November so he should be sharper for this. Mississippi Miss and Snooker Jim slip further down the weights with the latter preferred.
