Already successful six times around here, ARDERA CROSS has come back to the kind of form that saw him score off a 13lb higher mark here a year ago. Though he’s best over 2m, he has won over further and he’ll apply pressure to the jumping of Destiny Is All, who fell heavily here last time when travelling like a winner. Irish raider Wee Small Hours placed over track and trip last month but is 5lb out of the handicap and Victory Echo has gone up 8lb for winning at Catterick.
