FLYMAN won't mind if the going gets any softer and is upped only 2lb for winning over track and trip at the start of the month. Nameitwhatyoulike and Right Touch were not far behind the selection last time and are others to consider as both have a chance of turning the tables but the selection's stablemate Regal Dan has done all his winning over 7f so far. Showstoppa has held her form well since scoring over course and distance last month while Shipyard has run well in all three starts for Mike Appleby so far and went close again at Musselburgh a week ago. Meshardal could go well off his current mark, Barkston Ash is back on a winning mark and the more rain the better for The Hooded Claw.
