Gary Moore sent out last year’s winner and OZZIE MAN looks to have every chance this time. The latter made a winning reappearance at Plumpton last month and this extra distance should suit having won between the flags in Ireland. Another Mystery will be sharper for a comeback fourth at Fakenham while No Hubs No Hoobs has only his second start over fences on his reappearance. The remainder make their chasing debuts with Coronado Joe preferred.
