Harbour Front won over 1m4f at Southwell before finding one too good over 1m6f at the same track on his handicap debut.

Kensington Art has also won over this far though returned a disappointing favourite at Redcar last time while Flat To The Max returns to action having undergone wind surgery since finishing fourth at Newcastle back in January and is preferred of the remainder.
