The rejuvenated veteran Jonny Ebeneezer won over C&D earlier this month and looks to be facing an easier task here despite racing off a 6lb higher mark. SUHAYL STAR finished behind the latter in seventh place last time but was not far behind and a chance is taken on Paul Burgoyne's charge reversing the form on more favourable terms here. Gilderoy produced a better effort over 6f last time and could figure while Quahadi and Mr Funshine are others with outside claims if running up to their best.
