Warwick scorer Toowoomba steps up a grade off a 6lb higher mark and the runner-up has failed to frank the form. Vic De Touzaine has more scope having finished second on his debut over the larger obstacles at Fontwell. Plumpton second Mr Muddle won in this grade at Plumpton last April while Ultragold showed up well for a long way at Ascot last month. Bishops Road won at Leopardstown a year ago and is now with Kerry Lee but a big run is anticipated from FAIRY RATH as the Doncaster second likes it here and is now 2lb lower than when runner-up in last year's Topham at Aintree.
