The Hannon yard has a good recent record in this but Deluxe has yet to win and maiden winner Harbour Patrol was well beaten on his handicap bow. Outback Ruler makes more appeal despite a further 6lb rise for landing a double at Haydock but a chance is taken on USE YOUR FILBERT. He will need to step up on his comeback run over 6f at Haydock but is a half-brother to a winner over today's trip and has plenty of scope. Al Gomry is another stepping up in distance but is dropped in class and may figure while Inniscastle Lad looks capable of better after a pipe-opener at Windsor.
