Rey Loopy has recorded all three wins to date at this track but returns after a below-par effort at Redcar. Newmarket Warrior is another who likes it here and scored off a 2lb lower mark over course and distance before struggling at Doncaster. Party Fears Too opened his account with a victory at Hamilton last week and carries a penalty while Godolphin’s Returning Glory has been well beaten over middle-distances recently but may do better today. TWO FOR TWO was beaten less than a length in a tougher handicap at Ripon last time and Roger Fell’s veteran looks set for a return to winning ways having won off a much higher mark last summer.
