GINGILI has been in excellent form of late and he's due to go up another 2lb in future races; it would be no surprise to see him go well in a less competitive affair than the race he won at Worcester last time out. Heist won over C&D last time but can't be ruled out in a follow-up bid while Awaywiththegreys couldn't be ruled out if the rain arrives.
