Brian Hughes takes over the reins on recent course and distance runner-up Red Ochre. Mark Walford runs three and all have place claims. Astroman is the most experienced of the trio but Pileup looks to have more scope. Desaray Girl has been hinting at a return to form but it’s difficult to look beyond WHITE RHINO (NAP). The latter has picked up a penalty for last week’s Southwell victory but should improve further now he’s got his head in front.
