Vulcan Bomber was too keen at Exeter and may well reverse that form with Soldier On. MAWLOOD was a staying-on second at Market Rasen three weeks ago so the longer trip should suit and this doesn’t look the strongest of bumpers. Of the newcomers, Quick Draw and Let Me Be appeal on pedigree and are from leading NH yards so are worth a market check.
