The jump jockeys are taken to beat their flat counterparts here with preference for Mobane Flyer and Ruby Walsh over flat ridden horses Dispol Foxtrot and Mezuzah. The selection made an encouraging return behind the in-form Kylkenny at Pontefract last month and, with the drop in trip to a mile likely to suit, Richard Fahey's gelding is taken to resume winning ways. Top weight The Bonus King lost no caste in defeat in a big field handicap in another race at Pontefract on his most recent start and has to be respected under Graham Lee, while the lightly raced Cantarna ran with credit over course and distance on his reappearance and is another to consider. Dispol Foxtrot is only 2lbs higher than when scoring here in April and has gone well again since then, while Mezuzah has shown promise in both starts this term and cannot be discounted lightly. Darryll Holland's mount Rare Coincidence is another worthy of a mention but Mobane Flyer holds solid claims and gets the vote.
