Racing Pulse hasn't run since landing a hunters' chase at Kelso in May last year. HENRY'S JOY didn't get the run of the race here last time when his rider dropped his whip. Brian Hughes takes over and his mount can get back to winning ways. Shanroe Street stays extreme distance and was in the process of running a big race when unseating his rider at Hexham though that was over 4m. Tokaramore was impeded a couple of times when runner-up at Newcastle though was eventually well beaten but Definite Wisdom won a novices' handicap here in February and will have needed his comeback in October.
