Calarules only found one too good over 2m4f at Bangor last month but Earcomestom was staying on over 3m at Southwell last time so may not be suited by a drop in distance. Fenlons Court and Goodgirlteresa have decent claims at the head of the weights, though the latter was a bit disappointing when never figuring last time at Southwell. GAELIC FLOW ran easily his best race to date when third over course and distance last month. Bryony Frost again takes off 3lb and her mount can come good today.
