Easy Market Rasen winner High Secret heads the weights in this but he was only third behind Voodoo Doll at Worcester in June and is worse off at the weights. LITTERALE CI (NAP) was fourth in that race but hampered twice in the straight and was possibly an unlucky loser. Harry Fry’s mare is better off at the weights with both of those who finished in front and Aine O’Connor is good value for her 5lb claim. June’s course and distance winner Wolfcatcher is not out of this off bottom weight but novice Serosevsky will need to take a major step forward to figure. Ballinure may be best of the rest ahead of Solatentif, Kentford Heiress and Equus Amadeus.
