Formscan  - Darkened Edge won a shade cosily here last time and a 6lb rise may not be enough to prevent another solid effort. However, SAVANNAH SMILES also won over course and distance last week, when emphatically beating a previous winner, and Grace Harris' sprinter looks worth sticking with on the strength of that form. Stalingrad has won over 6f at the track and it would be no surprise if he bounced back off a favourable mark.
