Shantou Breeze is struggling but the remaining trio can all be given a chance. Bobbits Way is inconsistent but went close at Ffos Las last time while Head Spin just failed to follow-up a win at Southwell when going close back at the same track three weeks ago. ALRIGHT BENNY has been raised 7lb for his course and distance victory but won easily enough and gets the nod to go in again here.
