BEGGARS CROSS is upped 6lb for winning at Warwick last month but Aidan Coleman could afford to ease him down close home and another bold bid is expected.

Abracadabra Sivola disappointed last time having placed at Uttoxeter before that while Chef D'oeuvre won a beginners’ chase in testing ground at Hereford early this year and could go well.
