GENERALYSE was beaten a length at Kempton last time and may be good enough. Both Smidgen and Angels Wings drop in class and should finish closer while Ypres finished ahead of Mo Henry when third at Redcar and can race off the same mark today. Indian Affair posted one of his better efforts when going close at Chepstow but had earlier finished behind Bosham when the latter scored over track and trip last month off a 10lb lower mark.
