Theydon Bois made a successful comeback at Newmarket when returning a shock 50/1 winner and should stay this longer trip. Seebeedee ran well at Windsor on her return and also steps up in distance but IVORS INVOLVEMENT was only beaten a head over track and trip on his penultimate start and has subsequently won over a mile at Nottingham - he gets the vote to go in again. Hawkmeister has yet to shown any improvement for his slide down the weights but makes most appeal of the remainder.
