Border Abby was never really travelling at Kempton last time but had finished second under today's pilot at Salisbury the time before and can't be ruled out. Joyful Sound is unexposed but so is MADISON SQUARE, who hasn't been getting home over longer trips this year but finished third over a mile on his debut at Nottingham in October and looks well handicapped on that effort here. Henrys Air didn't beat much at Bath in May so Valeo Si Vales, who went close on his reappearance at Beverley, may be best of the rest.
