Arumun is very well treated on his old form while Zhukov rarely runs a bad race around here and won over a longer trip at the track earlier this month. CITRUS MARK may be another for the Paul Webber team, however, having made a winning start to his chase career at Worcester last month when The Grey One fell - there should be more to come. Try Catch Me has had a break so may need this while Beauchamp Viking and Shropshirelass usually find at least one too good.
