Having been well backed when finishing a close third behind two class-droppers last time, SIMPLY RED can gain her first win for Brian Ellison in an ordinary looking 0-100 handicap. If ready to roll after a 4-month absence, Trafalgar Square has shown enough to suggest he's capable of winning a race of this nature, while Follow Charlie is respected following a creditable third over a longer trip earlier this month.
