PICKLED PELICAN failed to land the odds at Brighton and is a given a chance to make amends. Not much went right for him last time after a slow start but he can still boast the best form in this contest. Likely improvers include Chepstow runner-up Miss Purity Pinker and also Small Steps, who showed early pace on her debut over 7f at Doncaster. Summer Lane and Billyrayvalentine may finish closer and better is expected of Spirit Of The Law as Ed Dunlop trained the winner of this race last year.
