SIR WINSTON (NAP) was sent off favourite at Leicester on his recent handicap debut despite it being his first outing of the year. He could only manage third but will be sharper today and gets another chance. Bora Bora won over a longer distance here in July but Trois Vallees is preferred on her recent efforts over today’s trip and is fitted with cheekpieces for this. Mumcat has been thereabouts over 6f here since fitted with a hood and could go well.
