Heezagrey isn't easy to predict but was on his best behaviour when scoring at Huntingdon on Monday and will go close here if in a similar mood, despite being a pound wrong in the weights. Rivermouth chased home Zhukov, who runs earlier on the card, over a shorter trip here earlier this month and is another for the short-list but Backfromthecongo has been below par for a while and Mrs Peacock is another carrying more than her allotted weight. QUAYSIDE COURT wasn't far behind Bennys Well at Worcester in June and has improved since. He's also better off at the weights so can land this.
