The old lady in the field, Graceful Act showed her desire for winning races remains intact when scoring last month at Beverley and she'll find being back over this trip a help having struggled since at the same course over shorter. Sulafaat is yet to shine on turf but does come here off a positive run on Newcastle's AW track, ensuring she too merits consideration. Carlisle winner ZEALOUS looks the one to side with despite a 5lb rise however. He is still well-treated on his old form and has his weight taken off by Connor Wood's claim, having seemed to thrive in first-time cheekpieces three weeks ago.
