Suprise Vendor arrives on the back of a win over hurdles and could figure, while Valantino Oyster is not easily dismissed off his current mark. Fossgate ran well at Ripon on Monday and is not out of this, but the vote goes to FALCUN. His 5lb rise for finishing second over C&D last month is negated by Lee Topliss' claim and the lightly-raced four-year-old has plenty of scope for improvement. Without Equal ended last season with a win at Catterick and is another to consider.
