Most of these would probably struggle to win a seller nowadays. San Pedro De Senam did place here twice last spring but has been absent since. RATOUTE YUTTY was returning from a lengthy absence of her own when pulled up at Fakenham last week. Twice a course and distance winner in the first half of last year, she might be worth a small interest in this. The Wise Traveller was well ahead of Bird On The Wire when a beaten favourite at Doncaster last month and looks a threat to all.
