DARK ALLIANCE took advantage of a slide down the weights to win an apprentices’ race with plenty in hand at Wolverhampton earlier this week. He can strike again given Mark Loughnane’s charge escapes a penalty. Ubla has been raised only 2lb having ended a long losing run with a victory over 7f here and Exit Europe has a shout on a recent second at Kempton. Passing Star looks no nearer winning but Ember's Glow has quickly tumbled down the weights and has his first start for Phil McEntee today.
