Louis Phillipe has won twice here but not over a trip this far. Moorlands George and Pure Poteen disappointed at Worcester last month behind Bincombe who, like PETERBROWN, is trained by Philip Hobbs. The Withycombe trainer should know where he stands with the top weight, who can be forgiven a defeat here last time over hurdles. Wiffy Chatsby has proved very difficult to place and is still climbing the weights while Houston Dynimo may be on a downward spiral.
