He Likes Tobouggie has much to prove while Frankly Speaking will probably need to improve a little on his third at Doncaster, where he was a little keen. BARDD is a half-brother to two winners on the Flat, including Cesarewitch third Plymouth Rock, and that mixture of speed and stamina should prove too much for the jumps-bred newcomer Laval Noir. Max Dynamo's pedigree suggests he'll need time to mature.
