Several possibilities in a very well-contested handicap. CAME FROM NOWHERE may have completed a hat-trick but for losing momentum with a last-flight mistake back in novice company at Newbury last time and can show he's still ahead of his mark returned to a handicap. A Perfect Day, whose latest Uttoxeter second was boosted when the winner followed up at Aintree last week, is second choice ahead of unexposed handicap newcomer Eagles Reprieve and the progressive Sanilam.
