SONG OF PARKES won with plenty to spare in a higher grade race over C&D last time. He can follow up with a similar effort here despite the 6lb rise. Ginger Ted won at Lingfield during the week and has a penalty to carry as a consequence. He had earlier finished four lengths behind Above Standard over track and trip and will do well to reverse that form today. Avonvalley had Available behind when runner-up over C&D earlier this month and Pontefract winner Above The Stars has an outside chance off her current mark.
