Ernest Gray, a dual bumper winner, may be better than he’s shown so far over timber and he holds Get Up Mush on Warwick running. Cerendipity beat a previous winner at Catterick, though was receiving 10lb. SNOWY EVENING has his sights lowered and probably wasn’t suited by dropping back to 2m last time at Haydock. He still has potential and gets 7lb from Largy Shark, a surprise winner at Ayr when making his hurdling debut. Old Durham Town may need the run today after a lengthy absence.
