Boyfromnowhere won the Southern National in 2013 and has won his last two between the flags. He is very well handicapped if retaining his former ability. PENA DORADA is two from two over course and distance and 2lb lower than when landing this 12 months ago. He only found one too good back in a handicap at Kelso last month so a repeat could be on the cards as San Pietro seems to reserve his best for Bangor and though Clues And Arrows was only beaten a head here last time he's 4lb higher now. Urban Gale usually struggles in this grade and Georgie Lad is 0-5 over fences.
