Rushwee was still going well ahead of the field when unseating his rider in the latter stages of his comeback run at Leicester on Tuesday. He makes a quick reappearance and another bold bid is expected but the vote goes DUNE SHINE. An early blunder put paid to his chances at Ffos Las last time but his second at Towcester before that is working out well and Oliver Sherwood's charge looks potentially well treated on his handicap debut. Turf Trivia has won a couple of juvenile events but may need faster ground to show his best and Lap Of Honour falls into the same category.
