Wells De Lune (4/6), Applesandpierres (7/1), Theflyingportrait (8/1), Dark Invader (8/1), Lough Kent (10/1), Ifandbutwhynot (12/1), Chirico Vallis (20/1)

A fascinating tactical battle with Wells De Lune appearing to be rejuvenated by hurdles and a tongue-tie returning to fences after blitzing his rivals from the front on three separate occasions around here the latest demolition coming in Saturday; he runs off the same mark here. THEFLYINGPORTRAIT also likes to go forward and has C&D form to his name and he ran well last time at Stratford (looked on the way back) when presented with a race with plenty of pace also. He sat just off it there and similar tactics could pay dividends today. Both Dark Invader and Applesandpierres will have their jumping tested here while Ifbutandwhynot will need to improve again off a 5lb higher mark.
