Saltburn handler Mary Reveley boasts a good record here and can add to the tally with the highly versatile Tees Components. The son of Risk Me rattled up a sequence of bumper victories before showing progressive form on the Flat last year including a nine-length success in a competitive Newmarket handicap off a mark of 89. The eight-year-old scored with ease on his hurdling bow over this trip at Newcastle in late November and can be excused an odds-on defeat next time on account of a slow pace over an inadequate two miles. Maybe The Business was well beaten in a useful event at Newbury last time but looks the danger if reproducing the same level of form which saw him score at Folkestone previously. Coolsan comes here in top form (holds recent Fontwell winner Cowboyboots on Plumpton form) but, along with the hat-trick seeking Well Then Now Then, needs to improve to trouble the selection.
