Resplendent Grey was impressive at Market Rasen but this looks a better race and he's penalised. Samazul also carries extra for beating what looked a moderate bunch at Southwell but SUPREMELY WEST had a subsequent winner behind when scoring at Tramore and could prove best of the penalised winners. Westerninthepark has joined Milton Harris after finishing second in an Irish point while Stop Loss is a half-brother to three winning jumpers. The filly Delgany Dreamer is Dan Skelton's only runner of the meeting and she's out of a mare who won on the Flat and over hurdles in France.
