Searanger just got the better of Melaniemillie over track and trip a week ago with Cool Strutter, Clergyman and Etienne Gerard further behind. An apprentice’s allowance negates most of a 4lb rise while Extrasolar can race off the same mark as when passing the post first at Catterick during the week where he was demoted to second after hanging into a rival. Tan tumbled down the weights before winning at Southwell on his debut for Mick Appleby and should go well again but HADLEY can be forgiven a modest effort on soft ground last time and gets the nod on his earlier narrow-margin defeat over course and distance.
