Tetlami's run in the opener will be a pointer to the chances of KNIGHT PASS in this as Warren Greatrex's novice was trying to give 7lb to that one when third at Sandown earlier this month. The five-year-old got a bit warm before that race and is still learning his trade but may have been let in lightly on his handicap debut. Mauritino has won his last four starts over timber but is stepped up in grade here after a break, while Hildisvini has been well beaten in both starts this term. Christopher Wren took a long time to get on top at Leicester last time and is 8lb higher now but Pantxoa should run his race again and Like Minded is back over his best trip following a pipe-opener over further at Newbury. Woolfall Treasure didn't get home over 3m3f at Fontwell in September but this distance should prove ideal and he may represent more value than the disappointing Kells Belle.
