Snaffled (11/10), Wazin (2/1), Elite Shadow (6/1), Gorse (15/2), Undercover Brother (16/1)

WAZIN put in a couple of good efforts over 6f on her first two outings and she can make a winning handicap debut on her return to this trip having finished fourth over a furlong further last time out. The fitting of a visor should sharped Simon Crisford's filly up and she can get the better of top weight Snaffled who finished runner-up at Lingfield recently.Elite Shadow won and placed over the minimum distance for his previous yard and he can finish third on his first attempt at this distance.
