MAYO LAD has finished thereabouts since scoring at Wolverhampton in April and Richard Hannon's charge gets the token vote in an uninspiring contest. Strathnaver has finished sixth on both starts this year but wasn't beaten that far on either occasion and Isingy Red finished a bit closer on his latest start at Kempton. Soweto Star is back on a winning mark and he could prove best of the remainder having finished a close-up fifth to Duster at Folkestone on his latest start.
