Al Ozzdi and LUKOUTOLDMAKEZEBAK fought out the finish to a similar contest here last week with the Roger Fell-trained runner coming out on top by 1¼L. However, with a 5lb weights turnaround there's every chance that the impossibly named Newcastle regular can gain his revenge and record a fourth course success. Possible place contenders include Ballet Red and High Fort who are both making their first start for new connections - Tim Fitzgerald and Alistair Whillans respectively.
