Marshal Dan Troop was weighted to beat the eventual winner in a seller at Lingfield last time but came up short. STREET OUTLAW makes more appeal as he came up against Hard To Handel, rated 76, over 1m4f here last time and won over course and distance last year. English Summer was second in a three-runner affair at Lingfield last week and has the beating of another recent runner-up in Captain Swift on these terms. Burnside may figure dropping down in distance having finished just behind fourth-placed Hallstatt over 2m last time but hurdler Anton Dolin looks up against it.
