The step up in trip appeared to work the oracle for WILLIAM OF WYKEHAM when landing a Ballinrobe maiden over 2m6f last month. The five-year-old can continue his progress in this company holding of the attentions of the top weight, Freewheelin Dylan for trainer Dermot McLoughlin and distance winner and last time out beaten favourite, Tiger Twenty Two for the Gordon Elliott yard. Cahirdown Boy and the Gavin Cromwell-trained Top Of The Charts should not be underestimated.
