Nick Williams is running out of options as he tries to get a race out of Diamond Eclipse, who was placing for the fifth time in as many start over fences when runner-up to Escardo at Newton Abbot last month. David Bridgwater's charge has finished second here and at Fontwell since but the former can reverse the form now with My Condor likely to make this a fast pace. YOUM JAMIL finished behind Escardo and Diamond Eclipse at Newton Abbot but was making his debut over fences that day. Still only a five-year-old, who should be open to more improvement than his old rivals and can take advantage of his low weight here. Bennys Quest, Beherayn and Carleton Place could all figure if on a going day.
