Hurdles winner in the spring whose Leicester second off 2lb lower last month has been very well advertised since; this trip looks a bare minimum now but she holds obvious claims otherwise.

Won two in a row on turf last August and latest was off 2lb lower; generally disappointing since last success but he made some late headway when fourth at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) last month; that was more like it and he has each-way claims if he can build on that.

Both wins for Paul Midgley came here in the summer and he's well handicapped now; the forecast faster ground is in his favour and he won't mind going back up in trip for a yard in good nick, so there are positives.
