The winner looks likely to come from one of Zodiakos, Southern Rock or HARVEY DENT with all three horses having positive elements to their recent form. The Roger Fell-trained runner escapes a penalty for last week's gritty Haydock win, while the David O'Meara inmate is a C&D maiden winner who is lightly-raced and open to further improvement. However, we'll plump for the prominent racer Harvey Dent in what is arguably a slightly weaker race than he's been contesting of late. Due a 1lb rise in the weights for another good run at Carlisle last week (second) he has the former champion Paul Hanagan back in the saddle.
