Bell's Ocean has to make the short-list with the title chasing Paul Hanagan booked but it may be worth taking a chance with HATHAWAY in an open race where Alfalevva and Forshour must also enter calculations. Miami Gator is another that really ought to be added to that list as he was just a short-head behind Bell's Ocean when the pair clashed at Carlisle and they are closely matched on that form. Forshour is tried in blinkers as he drops in grade and that may help to see him in a better light as may the return to this track as it was the scene of his best performance as a juvenile. Alfalevva has been kept to selling and claiming company in recent starts but the handicapper has given him a chance and he hasn't had many opportunities this term. Another to have eased in the weights is Hathaway and Mark Brisbourne's filly is now back down to the mark from which she won over course and distance in May; she's well drawn and Paul Mulrennan's booking is a positive for a yard that boasts a level stakes profit here.
