AKIRRA (1) has plenty of weight to burden but will have improved physically from the first run of the season after a gelding operation at Sandown Park last month. Just 3.75L down on that occasion in fifth place and rates highly. ONE AND GONE (4) disappointed at Epsom in a big field handicap on Oaks Day. Down in grade and looks worth another chance. HAVANA SMILE (3) got off the mark at Sandown Park winning by 0.75L on just his second start at this trip. Clearly enjoys 1000m and is a major player. RED SNAPPER (8) not disgraced on two of his last three runs and if in the same form here will be a threat.
