Both Arrange and Animato are upped in class and distance with the former bidding for a hat-trick after scoring over 1m6f at Catterick. But SEPTEMBER POWER showed further progress when successful over course and distance last month and should be in the mix once again. Wakool and Punctuation may prove ahead of the handicapper returning to the Flat having both won over hurdles earlier this year while Haveyoumissedme won at Newcastle over a year ago and has his first start since.
