Low Cut Affair beat nothing when landing the odds in a claimer over 6f here last time and will find this much tougher. STAR FIRE may improve past the latter now handicapping for the first time after finishing third over track and trip last month when just ahead of Coursing. Most Tempting was beaten only a head in a lower grade contest over course and distance last time while Celestial Vision has the past form to figure as he returns from a lay-off.
