Novice winners First Greyed and High Peak were both well beaten in handicaps last time and are penalised on their return to this level along with Candescence. The latter made a winning debut when scoring over 6f at Pontefract but Bulls Aye disappointed sent off favourite over track and trip albeit on soft going. THE FAST LION had to be switched for a run at Newmarket on his debut and never threatened but he showed some promise nonetheless and gets a speculative vote with improvement expected. Autumn Aurora is related to a host of winners and is preferred to Fae The Port of the newcomers.
