Donald McCain sent out last year’s winner and HAVEANOTHERGOFLO may well improve again with a tongue-tie applied. The latter never threatened when third at Ayr last time thought the runner-up has subsequently won. Monochromix also finished third at Ayr in January and can figure again while Kingston Bridge is upped in trip after a moderate hurdling debut at Kelso. Wearelongterm makes his hurdling bow and debuts for a new yard having finished fourth in a hunter chase in Ireland on his only start so far under Rules.
