Spit Spot (M)
[PT]
Fair winner on the Flat and over hurdles who was said to have lost her action when pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Perth last month (has since had a breathing operation). It's hard to be confident returning to the level for the first tim…

Star Cast (F)
Notched her fourth win of the year when defying a penalty to land a double at Ripon last time, shaping as though well worth another try over this sort of trip, and she's very much respected in her bid for a hat-trick.

Spirit Catcher (G)
FAV
Capitalised on a much-reduced mark to land a gamble over 9f here (form franked by Alpine Sierra subsequently) and ran at least as well when runner-up at Ripon on Sunday. He's worth a go over 1½m and remains well treated on old form.

Cougar (G)
[B]
Responded well to the fitting of blinkers when landing the first leg of a double over C&D last season but underperformed with headgear refitted here last time.

Alpine Sierra (G)
Gained a deserved reward for a series of near misses when a smooth winner of a similar handicap at Hamilton (11f) last time. He isn't fully exposed over this longer distance, and a 6 lb rise may not be enough to prevent a follow-up.

Just Dottie (M)
Strong-travelling mare made a winning handicap debut on the Flat at Ayr last autumn. Should be better for her reappearance over hurdles at Perth and is still low mileage in this sphere.
