IT'S TIM (1) was a winner over 2800m at Chelmsford last start, making it 3 wins from 8 starts. Claim helps offset the weight rise and looks a top chance again. LEDNIKOV (5) was safely held when third last time out over 2400m at Southwell All Weather, beaten 6 lengths after being prominent at the bend. That followed a win at Southwell All Weather at the previous outing. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. LECHUGA LAD (2) is a five-start maiden who finished ninth at his most recent outing over 2000m at Redcar. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for him. ENDOFASTORM (6) is back from a spell of five months. Scored a determined win at her final run last campaign at this track over 2450m. Definite top-three chance.
