Verdict
Roc De Prince is doubly engaged but likely to run in the 3.35. Lucinda Russell saddles half of the six entries and you could probably make a case for all of her trio, though Blazin White Face is returning from a lengthy absence. Lord Of Drums might come out best if managing a clear round but TWENTYPOUNDLUCK won on this course last summer and is back on a decent mark again judged on his latest third at Uttoxeter. Peachey Moment won over track and trip back in 2011 but is on a long losing run.
