Dual winning bumper Anna's Arch hasn't done as well as expected under Flat rules and disappointed at Doncaster last time though she finished in front of Incitement on her previous start over 1m4f here. Zefooha had Dan's Heir in second when scoring over this trip at Redcar in April but the runner-up has a fair chance of reversing the form on today's terms. Bijou Dan, the winner of 14 races in a long career, ran very well at Thirsk last time but was over 8l behind MOHAWK RIDGE when Michael Dods' charge scored over the C&D in August and, as the winner can race from the same mark, he looks the one to be on as the track favours him.
