Occasionally Yours won at Southwell and Fakenham in May but it's more than four years since he won off a mark this high and he isn't getting any younger. Dispour is 13lb lower than for his last victory but recent efforts don't inspire confidence. Factor Fifty is another tumbling down the weights but has to show much improvement for it. FLASHMAN has only been placed once in six runs over timber but has won five times on the Flat up to 2m. He can't go much lower in the weights so is given a final chance with Tiradia having stamina to prove over this trip.
