Mark Walford and Emma Todd are generally a force to be reckoned with around here and MR SNOOZY showed himself to be better than a plater at Hexham in May before running another fine race from the front at Aintree. He’s another 2lb higher here but his rider claims 5lb so he heads the short-list. The maiden Shillingsworth is a danger as is Ffos Las scorer Grams And Ounces. Notnow Seamus came good again at Southwell while Eureu Du Boulay may be coming to hand. Morianour has been quite highly tried since winning his maiden here two years ago and better ground should help.
