Meadowbank fell when travelling well last time in desperate conditions at Market Rasen and he could be the choice in a tricky little event. Mick Easterby has an interesting candidate in Banker Count who will put in a good display if his jumping holds up. Possible favourite Samuel Wilderspin was all out to win last time and may be inconvenienced by the extra weight he will have to carry. A lively outsider could be the Bob Woodhouse trained Donnybrook who has fallen to a nice mark and has shaped as if he will appreciate this step up in trip. Lively Dessert is a horse on the upgrade and looks to be on a handy mark.
