Novices of interesting potential clash in a tasty opener, in which CADELL is taken to make it four wins from five starts. He impressed here last time with the style of his success, will handle the slightly longer trip and can defy topweight despite facing useful opposition. Chance The Robin represents a yard which excels with their British raids and Dylan Johnston‘s claim sees the McConnell charge receive a stone. He is an obvious threat although is faced with a rise in quality here. Charlie Uberalles is a possible but has not been seen for well over 400 days, while Kerryhil displayed definite ability in the pointing sphere and Brian Hughes is booked for this Rules debut.
