A former course winner, BLACK LIGHTNING goes well here in general and this won’t take much winning. Fox's Socks could figure back over hurdles and past efforts would put Minella Youngy in the firing-line. Diana Prince could be interesting if a wind operation has produced the desired effect but Indian Sunbird is going backwards. Milton Harris runs two but Bari Breeze lacks a recent run and Edinburgh Rock is only a plater.
