West Leake Hare ran well for second over track and trip last week but is upped in class for this. Smalljohn is also facing a tougher task upped 5lb for his recent victory at Carlisle but Fayr Fall could go close with a recent run under his belt. But the latter has a bit to find on last season's running at Wolverhampton with MAJESTIC DREAM and Mick Easterby's charge has since gone close again at Beverley. Back down in trip after an outing over a mile at Haydock, he gets a tentative vote in this. Hierarch looks in need of some respite from the handicapper but could still make the frame.
