Fleurman only won a Class 6 at Salisbury and is 5lb higher here but the booking of William Buick suggests a measure of confidence. Prison Break won over this trip at Redcar before finishing last of three at Haydock but looks held by Doublethetrouble on collateral form. A step up in distance should suit Mariegold but MONBAHER easily beat a good yardstick over 1m4f here three weeks ago and is probably the one to beat if staying the extra.
