HAIL PROMENADER finally showed some improvement for his slide down the weights when runner-up at Chepstow last week. He can go one better with a 5lb claimer helping his cause. Leicester second, Skyfire, makes less appeal as he hasn't won since 2010, the same year Handheld recorded his only win to date. Mataajir has done most of his racing on the all-weather and Mishhar is preferred dropped another 3lb after her latest fifth at Catterick. Viking Warrior could prove best of the rest off his current mark.
