Commander Kev finished second in one of these events over C&D in February, less than a length in front of the re-opposing DUSSHERA. The latter disappointed when favourite at Towcester after that but has won a points race subsequently and may turn the tables with the former today. Topthorn has plenty to find with both the above on latest running while Righteous Glory hasn't competed over regulation fences since finishing a close-up third in this last year. He has claims with a similar effort but Durante hasn't raced under rules since 2009.
