The remarkable Beyondtemptation is bidding for her seventh win in eight starts since January. She had last year's winner Manballandall, and Redkalani, behind over 2m4f here last month but is still climbing the weights and has never won over a trip this far. Taylor was behind Beyondtemptation at Sedgefield last time but should get closer on today's terms. Mr Mulliner won three times last year and could figure if fully wound-up but SHANROE STREET arrives off the back of a maiden success at Ayr and should do even better over this longer trip having already won over3m between the flags. Victor Hewgo has shown a bit more lately but hasn't won over hurdles since 2013.
