CLEMENCY shrugged off a penalty for landing a maiden hurdle to score at Huntingdon last month. She looked to have plenty in reserve and can land this handicap. Card Game was also an easy winner at Sedgefield last time but has been raised 12lb for that while Miss Tiger Lily goes handicapping for the first time having picked-up a novice event at Bangor. Secret Door has been knocking at the door in novice company but Alizee De Janeiro found a further 7lb rise beyond her when a well beaten second at Kelso last time.
