Formscan - April Diamond has to be respected following her Carlisle success last month, but that was only a maiden handicap and this is tougher off a 3lb higher mark. With that in mind, preference is for HOSTELRY, who only found one too good off this mark at Beverley recently. Little Ted is 2lb lower than when runner-up at Ayr on Friday and is an obvious threat.
