This is easier than the soft-ground Doncaster maiden in which Hardly Surprising finished third in January but the quicker conditions may not be ideal and preference is for CLUAIN CHORMAIC, who has been placed in big fields on his last two appearances and ought to be suited by this move back up in trip. Dropematthestation has been given a wind op since his last run and also features prominently in calculations.[Chris Wilson]
