WIND OF HOPE goes for back-to-back victories in this and races off a 4lb lower mark than 12 months ago. Conditions shouldn’t be a problem and he looked to be coming to hand again when third at Sedgefield last month. The Ogle Gogle Man needs a real test of stamina and should go well under a penalty after his win at Sedgefield while Oliver's Island is back in the right grade after failing to complete the hat-trick at Kelso. Friary Land is consistent at this level and looks the pick of the remainder ahead of Sergeant Brody.
