More Buck's has been chasing for some time now and landed a double over fences during the summer. But he has yet to win over timber and KAKI DE LA PREE is preferred. The latter has the advantage of a recent outing when third at Uttoxeter and Tom Symonds’ charge looks capable of scoring off his current mark on that evidence. Quiz Master and stablemate Buckhorn Timothy are good enough to figure though both are returning from lay-offs with the latter making most appeal having gone close at Warwick when last in action in May while Granard looks best of the rest.
