Lochnell won this last year but was due to run here yesterday. It was good going when Dark Sunset won at Doncaster at the end of last year and he’s been beaten since but Haul Us In finished runner-up in testing ground at Carlisle recently and can figure. Stablemates Our Valentina and Crawfords Mill are looking for a return to form with the former preferred but the unexposed MY OLD GOLD makes most appeal having placed in both starts over hurdles so far and making her handicap debut today.
