HAZY TOM made mistakes at Bangor and was eventually pulled up in the race in which Siro Demur eventually finished fourth. But Alan McCabe's charge is much better than that and the drop back to 2m will suit this free-going sort, who was good enough to beat the likes of Cantlow and Shangani over the trip in a race at Warwick a couple of seasons ago. Neverownup unseated his rider in that Bangor contest but has finished second at Wincanton since, though is better on a faster surface. Popaway has a good record between the flags and Joker Choker could also figure if fully wound up.
