Da Vinci Hand won twice over 2m here last season and is only a pound higher than his last winning mark. Dreamsundermyfeet’s last victory came off a 2lb higher mark and he will be hard to keep out of the frame again but TRAC was second to an in-form rival over course and distance in December after an earlier win at Wetherby and looks the pick of the weights. Follow Your Arrow has only run once since June and has proved best at Hexham so far.
