A few here that can really act on this surface with none more so than Alpha Tauri, although he may well struggle to follow up off this higher mark given his rather inconsistent profile. SHEARIAN is 2/2 for Declan Carroll and he comes here seeking a three-timer and given his form so far at the track, he looks sure to go close to achieving that goal. Stun Gun is one that you can rarely leave out of the equation at Southwell although he does look to be a hard ride and likes a strong pace to run at. Playtothewhistle makes more appeal given his form at this track (with the headgear back on) today as he makes his second start for the Michael Appleby yard. 1. Shearian 2. Playtothewhistle 3. Stun Gun
