Mercian Prince was clear of the remainder when second at Market Rasen and won off a higher mark over fences last season but he may get outpaced again in the closing stages in this company. Tomorrow Mystery boasts decent form over 2m but still has stamina to prove over this trip and Fix Sun, though impressive last time at Warwick, has never won beyond 2m1f. Significant rain would boost the claims of BALLYELLIS, who has won around here in the past and stay further. He’s proved himself to better than a plater over the last year and has dropped to a very attractive mark.
