Both Leicester winner Claude Greenwood and Sutton Sid carry a penalty and neither are certain stayers. Stamina could also be an issue for Spanish Art, best of official ratings, while Handsome Stranger finished behind Claude Greenwood two runs ago and has been well beaten since at Brighton. UNIDEXTER was having his first run since December when well behind on soft ground at Lingfield last month but has been placed over this trip and was second in a seller over a mile at Nottingham as a two-year-old. He might be the one to beat in a poor seller.
