LUNA DORA took her form up a notch after an absence when going in at Fakenham last time and looks weighted to follow up despite having to race off a 9 lb higher mark here. Malina Ocarina was in good order when last seen out in the summer and goes well fresh so is next on the list, with Minelladestination weighted to have a say too in an open handicap.
