Most of these are hard to recommend so Tember and SUPER MAJOR may well end up fighting out the finish once again as was the case at Leicester last week. The former just held on to win by a head on that occasion but is penalised today and Michael Dods’ charge is taken to reverse running. The rest haven’t looked like winning recently but Bee Machine scored at Catterick back in April and Duba Plains finished a bit closer over 6f last time. Here In The Dark has bits of form if in the mood.
