SOCIAL REALISM bids for hat-trick after scoring at Aintree last month and with more to come Jonjo O'Neill's charge gets the vote ahead of the less experienced Godwit. The latter makes her handicap debut and won't have to improve much to get involved while Bollin Dolly finished closer at Hexham last time and can also figure. Me And Ben will appreciate the drop back to a shorter trip and could prove best of the rest.
