Dante's Way is an interesting newcomer and Coachie Bear is also worth a market check. Nuts Well had Ange Des Malberaux behind when third at Hexham and should confirm that running. Tickanrun improved on his first run at Sedgefield but would need more again here to get involved. Thisulldaeus was quite highly tried on debut at Ayr but this is best left to DOWN THE LINE. Alan Swinbank's charge rallied well to get off the mark at Carlisle and the uphill finish here will suit so he can defy his penalty as pointer Danmurphysdoor may need further.
