Bangers And Cash has won here and also scored over the trip. He made several jumping errors at Uttoxeter though that was a better race than this. Frenchy Du Large has never been the trip and is also prone to mistakes but GOLDEN SOVEREIGN is a strong staying type who arrives in good form and hasn't many miles on the clock for his age. The latter wouldn't mind more rain but Premier D'troice is better on quicker ground despite having won over hurdles here when the going was testing. Prime Venture was engaged in the 4.20 at Warwick yesterday.
