COLLINSBAY is proving hard to win with and was beaten when starting odds-on at Chelmsford the last time he raced in novice company. But, rated 89, he should have the measure of both Main Target and Rafiki in this and one of the newcomers will need to be above average to come out best. Of those, Night Warrior has a middle-distance pedigree but Take Up Arms is a US-bred while jockey bookings suggest Rockets Red Glare is preferred to stablemate Bakersboy.
