Gordon Elliott sends over Boytonrath but he's not really built on seconds at Tramore and Down Royal at the end of the summer. Polarbrook looks to be back in the handicapper's grip while dual course and distance Baraboy is still 7lb higher than when winning at Cartmel in August. Bollin Line's victory at Market Rasen came in a seller but Pixiepot is 3lb lower than when second over track and trip in September last year, though hasn't raced since. MITCD won twice last season, including one here. A recent run on the all-weather should have blown away a few cobwebs and he's capable of making his presence felt in this with Jonathon Bewley taking off 3lb.
