Bloodsweatandtears won this in 2013 and is 1lb lower but has a poor strike-rate unlike HAWK MOTH, who likes it around here and has won twice on the track. He very nearly made it three at last week's fixture and from the same mark can gain victory number seven. Byrd In Hand and Roxy Lane were behind last week while Knight Of The Air has never won but went very close on fast ground at Lingfield before a moderate run at Bath where the going may have been against him. World Record was also inconvenienced by soft going last time after a much better run here earlier.
