Racecourse experience can count for plenty in these races and CALL TO ORDER ran far better than the market anticipated on his debut at Warwick. With plenty of time to recover from those exertions, we take the son of Presenting to get off the mark in the nightcap. Philip Hobbs has a fine record with his bumper performers at Uttoxeter so Bacchanel will be no pushover. The gelding ran encouragingly at Wincanton on his opening bow and there should be more to come. Penn Lane is watched closely on his second start for Warren Greatrex whilst Marvellous Monty took part in what was probably a stronger bumper on her debut at Newbury and makes a degree of appeal in receipt of her sex allowance. Of the debutants, Paradis Blanc could be the pick for Nigel Twiston Davies.
