Derulo has been knocking on the door while Ahoy There could figure if fully wound-up. Millkwood and Ted's Brother are others with claims at the weights and Margaret's Mission left previous form behind when scoring at Newcastle, though has more to do here off a 6lb higher mark. MAKIN THE RULES may prove the pick of David O'Meara's two runners ahead of Hamilton runner-up Thornaby Nash as he seems to have improved for a step up in trip this year. Back over 1m, he can take this though Haydock third Dark Ocean is a big danger under Graham Lee.
