Sparte Quercus is interesting on his handicap debut with three runs down the field to qualify for a handicap mark. With his stable hitting form he is one to note in pre-race trading. Best Example catches the eye off this mark and representing last year's winning trainer/rider combination. Dunquin will be saddled by John Mackie who had a double here last weekend. Luke Morris has partnered him to his two latest victories and is reunited for the first time since. BOYCHICK faced what was clearly an impossible task at Wolverhampton when clashing with the much improved Lugano. This looks much easier and he can get back on the winning trail.
