CHARMAINE (2) returns from a break of nine weeks. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 2200m at Southwell All Weather. Expected to bring the good form from last campaign to this contest. ELTERWATER (7) is in top form lately scoring three wins on end, including a determined 1.75 lengths win over 1900m at Wolverhampton last time. Has claims if runs up to her latest effort. UMBRIA (6) went to the paddock after scoring at her last appearance six months ago over 2220m at this track. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. DANCINGWITHMYSELF (1) found the line nicely last start to get up for second over 2400m at Ripon when returning from a spell. Should be winding up late again.
