ONETHREEFIVENOTOUT was still going okay when coming down 3 out in the Potterstown and could be the way to go if he's none the worse as the Gordon Elliott stable continues in tremendous form. The Lovely Man appeals as one Gavin Cromwell can do well with and is feared most ahead of last year's winner Verdant Place.
