Red Stripes is upped in class off an 8lb higher mark after scoring at Chelmsford but GEORGE DRYDEN can race off the same mark as when runner-up in this grade last time. He looks capable of landing this on only his third start for Charlie Wallis. Brother Tiger has been in good form at Southwell but has won on Polytrack before while You're Cool landed a double at Chelmsford at the end of last year. Union Rose has a bit to find with the selection but Just That Lord went close at Kempton on last year’s reappearance and is similarly weighted for this.
