Pick A Little bids for a hat-trick of course victories. A 6lb rise is negated by an apprentice's allowance but he is raised in class today and last month's course and distance winner Gannicus is preferred raised only 2lb. But HANNO gets the vote to land this as he finished well ahead of Sixties Love when third at Lingfield last week and Ed Dunlop's charge finally looks capable of taking advantage of a slide down the weights. Shifting Star also beat Sixties Love over track and trip in April and the veteran should go well again.
