It could be worth chancing DEQUALL, who went with a little more fluency tried in blinkers at Newcastle and is lurking on a handy mark with Peter Kavanagh taking off an additional 7 lb. Milvale seems to save his best efforts for this track and responded well to this headgear last time, while Irish-raider Highland Sting must be respected given his yard's record with handicap-hurdle debutants.
