A small but fairly select field. The 7lb claim of George Rooke is considered helpful in boosting the chances of Mick Appleby's
Speed Merchant although the pair to concentrate upon are the handicap debutant
Will To Win and the thoroughly tough
DARK REGARD. The selection lost her unbeaten AW record (3-4) when upped-in-trip at Newcastle (7f) three weeks ago. However, there were plenty of positives to take from that performance (not least her unwavering attitude) and she's strongly fancied to make it 3-3 on the Fibresand at Southwell.
