Miami Gator had made all to win a Class 7 event here before attempting to do the same at Wolverhampton last time. He was caught in the closing stages on that occasion, while Pour Las Victoire also held the lead over track and trip on his latest start but was denied on the line. The latter has the beating of My Scat Daddy and Mr Chocolate Drop, however, and should go close again. Abigails Angel drops further down the weights as she looks to end a long losing run but CLAUDE GREENWOOD is preferred with a couple of comeback runs under his belt having also slipped down the handicap.
