Fearless Bay returned a beaten favourite at Nottingham on his return and cheekpieces are applied. SENSE OF SECURITY (NAP) was another losing favourite at Bath three days ago but endured a nightmare passage. She overcame a couple of early stumbles only to run into trouble in the closing stages so gets another chance in this. Away Wit Da Fairys also makes a quick reappearance having failed to figure at Lingfield earlier in the week but is still penalised for an earlier win at Southwell while Benjamin Bear is upped in trip for his handicap debut having been gelded.
