Regal Flow made amends for an unlucky run at Wincanton when holding off After Hours next time at Warwick, though was behind Willoughby Hedge at Sandown earlier. Behind The Wire has won two of his four starts over fences but couldn’t fend off FORT WORTH at Doncaster in January and is 4lb worse off with Jonjo O’Neill’s novice, who has gone close again at Taunton since off today’s mark. Rathlin Rose has been doing his winning in amateur races while Fingerontheswitch was beaten in an ordinary contest at Fakenham last time but Shanroe Santos appears on an upward curve and Bob Tucker was only beaten a head at Ascot earlier this month, though has gone back up in the weights again since. Moss On The Mill arrives off the back of a win at Wincanton but is hard to catch right and probably his stable’s second string.
