Long Call has been going well on the Flat prior to scoring at Bangor at the start of the month. He’s only been raised 2lb for that victory so has to go on the shortlist here. Urabamba has yet to win since switching to Kayley Woollacott’s yard two years ago but he can’t get much lower in the weights. Herecomesfreddie should be approaching peak fitness but last month's course winner LADY GWEN (NAP) still has untapped potential and can defy a 3lb rise.
