Kevin Ryan's Tribal Myth comes into this in good form this term having won over course and distance and finishing a good third at Leicester last time but he has been done few favours with a low draw and a better bet looks to be DAZAKHEE, who can reverse earlier running with Kevin Ryan's gelding and he gets the vote over Sixties Rock. Jeremy Glover's gelding won narrowly at Catterick last month when beating Paul Green's Elegant Dancer by a neck and there should not be much between the pair on the revised terms this afternoon with the runner up 1lb better in for the neck that separated the pair last time. Mark Johnston's Alsufooh may do better now sent handicapping but he needs to improve dramatically on all known form to play a part in the finish and of more interest may be Declan Carroll's Choc'a'moca, who looks to be going the right way having run his best race so far when a close second at Catterick last time. Several of these have chances in this handicap but Paul Midgley's Dazakhee can reverse earlier course and distance form with Tribal Myth and he gets the vote.
