B Ellison
Unplaced in all nine starts. Well beaten at 5-1 behind Sweetnessandlight when last of 4 on his latest outing at Southwell over 7f last month. Runs from 3lb out of handicap. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Michael Dods.
DUTCH ROSE will take some stopping in the finale. A winner on three of her four starts so far this year, she produced her best effort yet when scoring comfortably over an extended 6f at Carlisle last time and a 6lb penalty shouldn't be enough to stop her if in the same mood today. Handicap debutant Red Trump, Charles Hills' only runner on this afternoon's card, looks the biggest danger following her game maiden success at Wolverhampton, while Regal Acclaim certainly isn't out of it either.
