Misaro, who went close over C&D last month, has claims while Almaty Express scored over 6f here last time but has won an incredible 12 times over this C&D over the years. Monte Major is another multiple C&D winner and he won this race last year off a higher mark, but Straboe makes more appeal after bouncing back to form when runner-up here on Monday. However, SPARKING has been threatening to open her account for the in-form David Barron yard and she's the hopeful selection in a wide-open contest.
