Alezan won a classified event at Bath a fortnight ago but this is tougher raised 6lb while Stopnsearch won over track and trip on his handicap debut but that was back in February. Berkshire Philly went close here last month only to disappoint back at the track last time and headgear is fitted today while Disarming was narrowly beaten at Kempton but also ran below par on her latest start. Exotic Escape was due to run at Catterick yesterday but TIDAL RACER arrives on the back of a better effort at Bath on his first start handicapping and Clive Cox’ charge may well prove good enough with any further improvement.
