Raising The Bar was the one likely to attract most market support in this as he makes his handicap debut having shown ability at Sandown and Fakenham. But DISCKO DES PLAGES showed a big improvement upped in trip here last month and has been dropped 2lb since so could be a value alternative. Espoir De Loire won narrowly over course and distance last month but was then well beaten off this higher mark at Fontwell. He's A Goer and Santiago de Cuba could also be interesting but Ludlow winner Supakalanistic turned in a shocker last time at Huntingdon.
