Rambo Will is only a pound higher than when winning this 12 months ago. Pharoh Jake arrives in terrific form but has a penalty to carry for his latest success at Brighton and runner-up Perfect Pastime has every chance of turning the tables. The going may be too testing for Newcastle fourth Bronze Beau while West Coast Dream's latest win came on the Polytrack. Rylee Mooch has been knocking on the door again lately and should give a good account but Leicester third MAYMYO is a tentative selection to find the drop back to 5f to his liking on today's going.
