A number of these have been plugging away on the all-weather over the winter without reward so this probably won't take much winning. Anything that Charlie Hills runs on Town Moor is usually worth a second look and DARK PROFIT (NAP) is no exception. Second at Wolverhampton on his return to action, the grey actually wasn't beaten far in a couple of competitive nurseries at Goodwood and York last year and a race like this looks well within his capabilities. Richard Hannon's filly Crystal Malt only found one too good at Lingfield last week and Cam Hardie's claim in a plus. She looks the danger though Frangarry should have learned plenty from his run here at the start of the month. Aussie Ruler may be best of the rest.
