Nubough has raced mainly over 7f so far but did win over this trip at Chelmsford in January. Cool Reflection made his reappearance in a tough handicap at Newmarket but Great Midge and More Than Likely lack a recent run while The Groove has become expensive to follow. Similar accusations can probably be leveled at BUNGEE JUMP but she is now 4lb lower than when taking this 12 months ago and conditions will be ideal again today.
