QUIRKE ON PAROLE (3) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just a head from the winner in second over 2000m at Wetherby after being in contention on the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. NIPPASSO (2) finished 7 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1800m at Carlisle three-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. Right in the mix. WEST WICKHAM (1) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 9 lengths when sixth over 2820m at Redcar five weeks ago. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to take this out. SWEET CICELY (4) last appeared three-and-a-half weeks ago over 1800m at Carlisle when she finished seventh. This is her first run for the M E Sowersby stable.
