This looks wide-open but Richard Johnson takes over the reins from an amateur on Ennisnag so he's respected given he finished ahead of IKTIVIEW when second over track and trip last month. The latter is better off at the weights today, however, and could reverse the form if Stan Sheppard has him closer to the pace. Storm Alert is thrown in on his old form and has hinted at a revival at Cartmel lately while Blurred Lines ran her best race so far at Bangor last month. Dropzone tries a new trip and has been raised 7lb since his latest second here over 2m4f.
