Nathan Alison has already steered TENHOO to a hat-trick this term and there is no sign of their winning run coming to an end. Eric Alston's gelding overcame trouble in running to win a shade cosily at Haydock last time and looks capable of defying a further 6lb rise in the weights. Pevensey's recent form figures don't inspire confidence but he normally keeps better company than this and shouldn't be dismissed out of hand. Full Speed is a similar type and has a C&D win to his name off a higher mark, while there is likely to be plenty of interest in the unexposed maiden Indochina as well as Mark Johnston's Green Lightning, third to the useful War Poet at Thirsk last month. Pokfulham won at Hamilton earlier this month but the bottom weight has had a busy time over hurdles over the last few months and will be due a rest soon.
