Verdict
Den Maschine was only beaten a short-head over course and distance earlier this month but is 4lb higher. Greeleys Love is on a long losing run and was beaten in a claimer last time while Moccasin also struggles to get his head in front. Gabrial The Terror had INNOKO back in fifth when successful here at the start of the month but the latter is 3lb better off and, granted better luck in-running, is fancied to turn the tables today. Tizlove Regardless is preferred to Sioux Chieftain of the others.
