KHANGAI (8) is in consistent form with three places and three wins in six starts including a 0.75L victory at Southwell over 1m4f. Tackles this trip for the first time but should not ruin his chances. Leading hope. ALFHEIM (6) scored a hat-trick five days ago at Wolverhampton in an almost identical finish to his neck victory two starts ago at the same venue. Has to carry a five-pound penalty. Not out of the question. TORTURED SOUL (1) found a good 1.25L success at Wolverhampton almost two weeks ago. Represents an in form yard. Potential. Stablemate UPEPO (5) has a useful claimer on board to help him seek a consecutive victory at this track.
