Scotsbrook Night did well last summer and will have needed her run at Stratford. Oscar Maguire’s third at Market Rasen was a big step forward and Big Picture has won a couple of times over the trip. Raise Your Shades came good at Southwell last month and a penalty is partly covered by Jason Dixon’s claim. SKINFLINT (NAP) chased home the prolific Midnight Folie over fences on his first run back with David Pipe. He’s 0-8 under Rules but has won three points and looks fairly treated back over timber. My Lady Grey and Stolberg could also play a part.
