Some old favourites face the starter in this claimer but a few of them have probably seen better days. One is the 12-year-old Fremen while it's a long time since Dhaular Dhar and last week's Newcastle third Georgebernardshaw were last in the winner's circle. Bold Marc is ideally drawn for a front-runner but may only give a lead to KAY GEE BE who is the one to beat at the weights. Richard Fahey's charge gave 5lb and a beating to recent Wolverhampton winner Just Lille at Carlisle three runs ago and is better off at the weights now. City Of The Kings has been disappointing this year but has his sights lowered here and could run into a place.
