OCTAGON is the one to beat here for the in-form Harry Whittington, having scored in a similar contest last time at Southwell. A replication of that effort would give him outstanding claims of doubling up. Clock On Tom was delivering a much better effort on his return last month at Stratford only to forego his chance as he slithered and all but fell after jumping the last. He knows how to win and could mount a bid if building on that effort. Gold Class could go well on first run for a new yard while Mister Big may perk up in new headgear.
