It may be worth watching how Mac Halen gets on in one of the earlier races on the card as this may point to the value of Bubbs second behind the aforementioned. RISK CHALLENGE gets the vote being the only one coming here in winning form, although he carries an extra 7lb penalty for that victory. He beat Racingisdreaming by seven lengths last time and although David Pipe's young contender in the field is likely to close the gap on the selection this time, we still prefer Risk Challenge who appeared to have enough in the tank to handle the extra two furlongs today.
