Race preview
Six-time course winner Tasever is taken seriously, despite picking up a 5lb penalty for Tuesday's success over a mile here, while Flowstate commands respect after edging out Front Gunner over C&D. However, there could be some value in giving NOVAK another throw of the dice. Iain Jardine's gelding is a dual track-and-trip scorer and is highly dangerous to underestimate from 3lb below his last winning mark. Mohammed Tabti notably enhances that by claiming 5lb.
