Agent Louise runs for the first time since New Year's Day but won this last year off a 5lb higher mark. Icanmotor has an even longer absence to overcome while Gwili Spar has had plenty of chances and isn't getting any nearer. THE LATE SHIFT has yet to make the frame over timber but does appear to be improving and makes his handicap debut in very modest company. Barry Murtagh's maiden gets the nod to open his account, though Fire Tower must also have some sort of chance eased further in the weights with Richard Johnson doing the steering.
