Dual winner over 6f here since December but he does seem best at that trip

Just beaten by Rebel Path over 6f here last time; both wins over 5f came on soft turf

Well behind two of these over 6f here last time but this trip may suit better; blinkers on
3 (5)	Bang On The Bell Bay J:Finley Marsh T:J R Jenkins	J:Finley Marsh T:J R Jenkins	132	b	354-46	75	90	80	20d	—	—	-3	9.9	1.63/1	13/2 13%
7lb lower than when winning over C&D last March; could go well if able to lead
2 (2)	Dashing Harry Bay J:P J McDonald T:James Horton	J:P J McDonald T:James Horton	133	—	6-7614	76	92	73	9d	—	—	+1	8.7	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Likes to come late off a strong pace, so is something of a hostage to fortune
6 (4)	Alafdhal Chestnut J:Grace McEntee T:Phil McEntee	J:Grace McEntee T:Phil McEntee	118	b	9-0125	61	91	81	20d	—	—	0	4	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Four wins over 6f here and won over 5f at Wolverhampton last month, but others preferred
7 (7)	Buraback Bay J:Tyler Heard T:Derek Shaw	J:Tyler Heard T:Derek Shaw	117	—	-41155	60	89	77	12d	—	—	+8	11.6	6.25/1	25/1 4%
8-42 on AW, including a win over C&D, but he may find this company a shade too warm
