Head Space carries a penalty for winning at Lingfield last week while Captain Ryan scored over the minimum trip here a fortnight ago but has yet to win over 6f. It took Firesnake 18 attempts to break his duck when landing a maiden race at Chelmsford but Divine Call was raised only 2lb for scoring over track and trip last time and remains on a winning mark. CAMDORA recorded a double on the all-weather earlier this year and showed signs of a resurgence when narrowly beaten at Chelmsford last month - it could be her turn again today.
