Cody Wyoming may not have beaten much at Newton Abbot and steps up a grade for this off a 9lb higher mark. CLOUDY BOB (NAP) has been a model of consistency since the turn of the year and wasn't beaten far off this mark last time when third at Kempton. Pat Murphy's chaser has his ground again and should prove hard to beat. Double Silver has claims on her latest second at Ludlow and makes more appeal than the novice Western Jo. Russborough may struggle for stamina again and Benenden has become hard to catch right.
