Verdict
SHARRABANG scored over this trip at Carlisle and stayed on strongly to lead close home over 6f here last time and can race from the same mark. Brigand looked like winning over the track and trip 12 days ago but was caught right on the line so is greatly respected while Scandinavian Lady has won on Tapeta at Newcastle and is just 2lb higher. Footsteps At Dawn arrives from Ireland and usually runs well at Dundalk but Nananita has never won and may need another drop in the weights.
