Veteran Damiens Dilemma has found some form this month and southern raider Another Emotion would have a chance on his best efforts. Eagle Ridge has been very consistent at Musselburgh but this is track is a lot different in nature, though he looks the pick of three Nick Alexander runners near the foot of the weights. Mance Rayder has won twice at Doncaster this term but is unreliable with recent Ayr winner Cash To Ash more interesting. OSCAR CEREMONY (NAP) is a strong traveller but he’s not been getting much help from the handicapper. However, he’s reunited today with winning rider Henry Brooke having been given plenty to do when ridden by claimers the last twice. The Late Legend has had a very successful campaign but he looked to be in the assessor’s grip last time at Doncaster.
