Dont Call Me Oscar has made giant strides since getting off the mark and gets on well with claimer Paul John. He can confirm recent Wincanton running with Sun Quest but his winning run has to come to an end some time and he has an enormous amount of ground to make up on UN BLEU A L'AAM on their run together at Taunton in December. Victor Dartnall's charge can be excused a subsequent run over further and can bounce back here. Snowell only found one too good over this trip at Taunton nine days ago while the quicker ground should see novice Ofcoursewecan in a much better light. Echo Foxtrot is usually thereabouts but also still seeking a first win.
