GRAVITY FLOW made a winning return at Lingfield when landing a maiden in good style and there should be more to come from her. Top of The Bank is more exposed but also returned to action with a win at Thirsk though that was back in April. Roll On Rory bids for a hat-trick off a 5lb higher mark having beaten Evenlode a long way at Chester while Market Choice posted a much better effort on his latest start at Pontefract having slipped down the weights and could go well.
