Chanceiton and veteran Landecker are both returning from a lengthy absence. OLIVER’S ISLAND steps up a grade and has been raised 9lb since competing a double at Catterick last month but Aaron Anderson claims 7lb and seems to get the best out of Sean Conway’s stayer, who is receiving a lot of weight from his rivals. Off The Beat hasn’t had much racing but has yet to prove he stays this far but Artic Mann won over course and distance two runs ago while Kaproyale may be capable of better than he’s shown so far.
