Green Zone was runner-up over further here two weeks ago but will need to be ridden more positively over this trip. Mister Manduro usually takes on stronger opposition so is worth a market check but it might be worth giving another chance to ELLE EST GRANDE with her yard in better form than when she was pulled up when favourite here last month. Achill Road Boy was declared for the 2.55 at Hexham yesterday.
