Tinkers Hill Tommy was beaten just over two lengths by Another Stowaway when on a hat-trick here in April and is only a pound better off. Reve had every chance when unseating his rider at Stratford last month but the tentative suggestion is CUBAN PETE, who goes well fresh even though he’s done most of his winning at Hereford. Sirobbie has only ever won at Uttoxeter but From The Heart looks a threat having left previous form well behind when a wide-margin winner at Exeter last month.
