Here Comes Henry held an entry for the showcase race at the five-day-stage but in this lesser grade, he should be too good for these and we therefore make him the TEAMtalk selection. He has already posted seconds at Chepstow and Ludlow, and his amateur rider has at least won on him in the past. Scallybuck has shown little (albeit in better grade) since his move to Bob Buckler's stable and with that stable yet to hit form, he is given the swerve. Nova Girl was a lucky winner at Newcastle when the front two capsized at the last. She also received a three-pound rise for her troubles. Of the remainder, See You Around makes some appeal. He was pulled up in a better affair at Ascot last time out but Colin Tizzard's team are sending out plenty of placed runners and Sam Stronge is riding at the top of his game at the moment.
