Peter Bowen's With Grace defied her penalty for her debut success at Bangor when winning at Southwell two weeks ago and she has every chance but may struggle under a 10lb penalty and a better bet looks to be RODY, who gets the verdict ahead of Doubletoilntrouble. Keith Goldsworthy's gelding makes his rules debut but has shown promise in two starts in points and has to be of interest here. Forcryingoutloud has shown a decent level of form in three starts in bumpers in Ireland and now makes his debut for Andy Haynes so has to be considered. Don McCain's Irish point winner Kalulushi has to be considered first time out under rules, while Maid Of Silk looks the most interesting of those racing for the first time in public. The vote though goes the way of Tom George's Rody, who made a pleasing debut when finding just Seam Of Diamonds too good at Uttoxeter at the beginning of the month and he can go one better today.
