A poor contest can go the way of Discomania over Let's Celebrate, The Borderer and Bold Trump. The market should be noted in such a moderate affair, but in the hope that Discomania can find the necessary improvement, he is selected to go one better than when second to Simplified at Fakenham. This more galloping track should be in his favour at least, and he can ensure that Let's Celebrate does not mirror his name, the seven-year-old as usual finding one too good when beaten at Huntingdon. The Borderer has shown nothing to date, but any support for Mick Easterby's charge would be interesting, while Bold Trump has topweight and has not been out since April. If anywhere near fit though, he could make a bold bid to lead. However, Discomania is the pick.
