Both Storm Runner and Seaside Rock would have claims in this on their best form but neither has raced for a while. Turnbury only found one too good at Brighton and Windsor last month but has had plenty of chances so there appears no reason to oppose the in-form INNOKO. He showed a willing attitude to catch Mcbirney over a longer trip earlier this month and can defy a 4lb rise to post a three-timer as he had Sabre Rock behind at Wolverhampton earlier.
