Course specialist Beeno is back on song but has never won off a mark this high, though Lilly Pinchin takes off 7lb. Candy Burg’s recent victory at Worcester came over fences but Cardigan Bay is respected having produced a career-best last time at Market Rasen, though is weighted to dead-heat with third Ingleby Hollow at the revised weights. Graceland has done really well this year, winning four times, but she’s best when allowed to dominate small fields. MARTILA returns from a break but has run well fresh in the past and could be a bit of value given she won a higher grade race than this off today’s mark when last encountering ground with some give.
