Dartrix goes unpenalised for winning an apprentices' race over track and trip last time with Wicked Wilma back in third but is facing stiffer competition in this. Phoenix Clubs makes more appeal on her recent second at Nottingham while Polytrack winners Tango Sky and Jinky also have claims. ROTHESAY CHANCER has the beating of Sandwith on last year's form at Musselburgh and finished well ahead of The Nifty Fox at Thirsk last time. Jim Goldie's charge gets the nod today racing off the same mark with Captain Scooby looking a threat on his defeat of Mission Impossible at Redcar last month.
