Rose Of Bayeux from the Duncan McKenzie stable takes her place in Race 4.
She is a winner of her last three starts. She ran on well to win her last outing over this course and distance.
She has won four times, finished second twice and third twice from ten starts over this course and distance. She will strip a fitter horse and can win again.
Hollywoodbets-sponsored trainer Gavin Smith sends out Slings And Arrows in Race 5.
He finished 0.5 lengths behind Dawn Of A New Era last time. He is 4.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned.
He has won once and finished third once from as many starts over this course and distance.
He is likely to race on the speed and may be hard to peg back.
