Verdict
Bunce finished runner-up in a seller over 7f at Redcar recently and will find this tougher. Hello Stranger has so far proved best over 5f but Albert Tatlock scored over today's trip for Dandy Nicholls last season and has his first start for a new yard on his return. Dartrix beat Mandalay King over the minimum trip at Hamilton before returning a losing favourite over 6f at Catterick. MCMONAGLE finished ahead of him in third on that occasion and the latter looks set to end his long losing run having slipped slowly down the weights to what could finally prove a winning mark.
