Tokyo Javilex could bounce back at any time now that the ground is drying out but Rainbow Haze still looks a shade high in the weights. Dusk Till Dawn has only had four runs over hurdles and may be capable of better and Rendl Beach showed a bit more when third at Ffos Las last month. JULLY LES BUXY should be capable of winning at this level judged on his third at Taunton, his first try over 3m. He's been left on the same mark and looks better treated than some. Ian Williams can get one ready at home but it would be a monumental achievement to produce Rocknrollrambo at his peak after an 1128-day lay-off.
