Fitzwilly is a decent staying handicapper in this grade who has won seven times on the Flat and is only 2lb higher than when scoring at Kempton last month. Burn Some Dust completed a double when scoring over the course and distance in August and was racing in a better class race on softer ground when only fourth at Haydock. He can go well but NEW SOCIETY (NAP) can take this off top weight. James Bethell's charge completed a double over 1m4f in May and though unsuccessful since stepping up in trip he's been competing at a higher level and only just failed to make all over 2m at Chester. Nibras Galaxy has done well since stepping up in trip and found soft ground against him at Haydock after a comfortable victory at Yarmouth. Paddy A beat Takbeer over this trip on the latter track and should confirm the form on better terms.
