Course winner Relkadam is thrown in in past form being 15lb lower than when scoring at Catterick last season. He looks the pick of his yard’s two runners ahead of the frustrating Beat The Edge. Caboy and Fever Roque are also proving hard to place while Trevelyn's Corn hasn’t really sparkled this term. CHRIS COOL tried to make all over 3m here last month but didn’t last home. He may enjoy better fortune today over this shorter trip.
