Captain Scooby will appreciate the softer ground but is better over the minimum trip. The same comment applies to Incomparable, second over 5f at Leicester when ahead of Minty Jones. Bearskin has every chance only 3lb higher than when scoring at Hamilton in August but GONINODAETHAT won a higher grade sprint over track and trip in July and gets a speculative vote to come good again. Cahal has finished a bit closer of late and may also figure.
