Minot Street has now won three times in just over a month and gone up 21lb in the process. He only just held on last week and has a massive weight to carry here. INNOKO completed a double in minor handicaps at Wolverhampton and Kempton then failed to obtain a clear run on his hat-trick attempt at Lingfield. Tony Carroll has booked Joseph O'Brien and the combination can come up trumps. Doux Douce was easily brushed aside by Minot Street last time but is much better off at the weights and should get closer. Diamond Dame completed a double over hurdles before a moderate run at Cheltenham last week and she made a successful racecourse debut on Polytrack at Wolverhampton in 2012.
