Course winner EIUM MAC was caught in the closing stages over a mile here on his last couple of outings. He may come good again over this shorter trip on that evidence. Risk 'N' Reward ended last season with a second at Yarmouth and can figure if taking to the Fibresand but Lendal Bridge never looked like catching the winner when third here last month. Cyflymder has been placed off higher marks at the track before but it's hard to make a decent case for any the remainder.
