Danandy won easily at Stratford last month but the handicapper has seen fit to raise him 14lb for that success, so he'll need to step up another gear today. Hansupfordetroit has been placed at this track on his last couple of starts and won't be far away again though he needs to reverse latest running with WYCHWOODS BROOK. The latter finished second here on his first start since March and can go one better with that run under his belt. Big Society was already beaten when falling at Worcester on his chasing bow while Super Villan also failed to complete on his first start over fences and has been dropped 8lb since.
