Woody Bay included a course and distance win in last month's double but has failed off today's higher mark the last twice now. Cadeaux Power scored over track and trip last time but only by a neck and is upped 5lb. FIELDGUNNER KIRKUP (NAP) wasn't beaten far when fourth here on the same card as the latter and it could pay to stick with David Barron's charge given he scored off a higher mark over track and trip back in May. Trail Blaze finished ahead of Mujazif when placed at Ayr last time and Shahdaroba is not out of this dropping back down a grade.
