Equus Millar was beaten when taking a tumble at Fakenham last month and needs some help from the handicapper. Voodoo Doll hasn’t really been threatening while Anightinlambourn, Family Pot and Mellow Ben are probably better over fences. Bagan was beaten in a seller at the start of the month so this can go to Gina Andrews’ mount MR YEATS, who was well backed here last time and wasn’t beaten far.
