A winner here in 2019 and successful last season at Doncaster, Uisce Ur could go well if fully wound-up. Fellow course and distance winner Skipthescales looks a threat to all after a third at Kelso last month. Jessiemac is starting to look well treated and Bean In Trouble hasn’t been beaten far the last twice. Getthepot might enjoy the step up in trip with a similar comment applying to Market Rasen winner Mister Sweets but, as long as there is no rain, GO CHIQUE must have a cracking chance with Ben French Davis taking off 7lb. He has only been raised a pound for a close second at Market Rasen where he was rallying in the closing stages.
