Raf Tavel is having a first run for Ben Pauling having last been seen winning a handicap at Compiegne last June. His experience will stand him in good stead but he is penalised along with Dreams Of Home, who land a Wetherby maiden on his debut under Rules having won a point before that. GULLIVER COLLONGES has a fine pedigree for jumping and there was plenty to like about his run in a Fontwell bumper in November – he will have had plenty of schooling. None of the others make much appeal.
