Top Beak was also entered at Ffos Las on Thursday over hurdles. HIGH NOON won easily here last time and a rise of 4lb seems fair so he's a tentative choice with the extra 2f not expected to prove inconvenient. Hurricane Vic landed a course and distance success last month but Pakie's Dream is hard to catch right. However, a decent case can be made for both Dallas Cowboy and Going Mobile, well backed at Cartmel last week, in a wide-open contest.
