This is a big drop in class for En Meme Temps but he’s yet to win for Philip Kirby, who also runs the potentially well-treated Suggestion. COOLE WELL will probably make the running and he deserves a change of luck having placed in his last three. Monarchofthegrange will be hoping to one better than at Leicester but is 3lb higher and Welland has run his best races on quicker surfaces. Poucor is having a first run for new connections following a lay-off and is fitted with a hood.
