King's Chorister normally travels strongly in his races but rarely finds much off the bridle, as was the case over C&D earlier in the month, and he's gone up 4lb since finishing third at Sedgefield last time. Lets Go Girls' only recent victory came in a seller while Catawollow ran a shocker on her latest start at Hexham. Urban Kode may need this and Deny disappointed when favourite at Wetherby last month so we'll give the vote to the unexposed SNOOKER, who won twice on the Flat in Germany and has his sights lowered after finishing fourth at Doncaster earlier this month.
