JORVIK PRINCE is literally the one to catch in this as he made every yard on both occasions when completing a double at Wolverhampton last month. A penalty may not anchor him today given his current frame of mind. Captain Scooby, Novabridge and Barnsdale have plenty to find with the selection on recent running while Toolatetodelegate usually runs his race but remains 9lb higher than an earlier success at Wolverhampton. The remainder are even harder to fancy unless Mighty Zip rediscovers his best form given he’s now back on a winning mark.
