DALAMAN may not have won at short odds last time but he looks capable of getting his head back in front back up in trip. Along Came Theo has seemingly improved and he won't mind the testing conditions here. The booking of Brian Hughes on Red Ochre is a major positive to that ones chance and he should be able to build on a recent placed effort.
