Fly Home Harry should figure again given Daragh Bourke negates a decent chunk of a 10lb penalty for his wins at Ayr and this track last time. But a chance is taken on GURKHA BRAVE as he's still getting plenty of weight from the former and went very close at Musselburgh earlier this month with Coinage back in fourth. The latter also has an engagement at Towcester but would have claims if turning up. Border Breaker, The Grey Taylor and Uppertown Cave were all successful in point-to-points last time and make their debuts under Rules while both Vinnie Red and Oleohneh are newcomers to note.
