Maximum Impact to take up the running at a moderate tempo. GRANDAD'S ADICTION (2) has been runner-up in his last three and can go one better. This is easier than last time and aided by the claim. Looks hard to hold out. TOSEN IMPACT (1) is a former Victorian who has had four runs for the new yard and will find this easier than last start at Ascot. Extra trip a plus, blinkers added and can improve sharply. NORMA STARS (5) is a veteran mare but found the line powerfully at the latest to score. Goes well here and looks tough to stop again. OPAL TANGO (3) was sound fresh and then last time at Ascot was safely held in a tougher race, finishing alongside Tosen Impact. This is more suitable and ready to fire after two runs back. ASARKA (8) has gone years since a win but rates highly on best form this circuit. SUGGESTED PLAY: Grandad's Adiction gets chance.
