A few with chances, but THAHAB IFRAJ comes here in top form and can race off the same mark as when a very good second at Newton Abbot so gets the vote. Aliomaana wasn't at her best on the level last time but is feared most back in this sphere off a handy-looking mark. Fakenham-scorer Glimpse of Gold isn't taken lightly either in what promises to be a close-run handicap.
