CRESSWELL LEGEND has been in good form so far this season and he can record his fourth victory over hurdles by taking this competitive staying handicap. The selection had to give best to a useful hurdler at Musselburgh last time and can see off Ascot second Salmanazar who looks the pick of the Alan King pair. Forthefunofit drops in grade having run well at Aintree last time out and he is taken to finish third.
