Beau Sancy came good at Bangor when well backed on his first start for Olly Murphy but has been bumped up 10lb for that and Warwick fourth DJARKEVI has probably dropped to a mark from which he should be capable of winning. Mr Satco and Turban are both unpredictable but a switch back to fences should see Norse Light in a better light. Polo The Mumm is modest in the extreme and Irish Thistle is increasingly looking a light of former days.
