This looks quite competitive but everything else could be playing for the silver and bronze if ROBIN OF LOCKSLEY is as effective over this slightly longer trip and having won a point-to-point early in his career, there seems no reason why not. He absolutely hosed up at Warwick and is well in under his penalty. The Wallace Line looks well treated if his latest second wasn't a flash in the pan and he and the improving Sammy B look likely to fight out the places.
