Dynamo Walt finished behind Union Rose at Wolverhampton last month but re-opposes on better terms and the former has been beaten since. Come On Dave has been raised 3lb for winning at Lingfield in November while Bahamian Heights won here the last time he raced over the minimum trip when beating Swendab but the latter and Zipedeedodah were both due to run at last night’s meeting here. Classic Pursuit has a shout on a recent third at Southwell but GEORGE DRYDEN (NAP) slips further down the weights and drops in class. An apprentice’s allowance further helps his cause and he can return to winning ways in this.
