Bromance beat several of these over track and trip when winning for the first time in 13 attempts. But the runner-up ALL YOU re-opposes on better terms and may well reverse the placings as David O’Meara’s charge scored off a higher mark here last year. Lean On Pete, King Of The Celts and Pan Alley were all further behind but Bit Of A Quirke is another course and distance winner and has a shout dropping down in class. Bahamian C was placed behind the latter here while Diamond Runner is penalised for winning at Nottingham last week.
