Nobby was only beaten a length on heavy going here in March when Melchior King, who started favourite, was behind – his yard won this last year. Tel'art is from the stable that sent out the useful Le Breuil to take this two years ago while Commander Miller is a half-brother to two winners. Balli Martine has already been placed at Uttoxeter and Lingfield and Gallows Point and Just Rocky are worth a market check. THE WOLF is a half-brother to the very smart dual purpose horse Gemix and by a top NH sire. He cost €95,000 last year and looks a nice prospect.
