AUBA ME YANG bumped into a well-fancied one when second over C&D last time and he can gain compensation today for a yard that is among the winners. Ghasham looks a big danger having only been thwarted by a thriving rival when second at Huntingdon last month. Handicap-debutant Wild Nephin and stable-debutante Tropical Speed are worthy of an honourable mention.
