Dessinateur has shown potential in three runs over timber after landing a Chepstow bumper last March but needs to find a bit more. Native Robin has improved massively over fences since he last ran over timber and can go well but Quiz Master couldn't handle an 8lb rise for his Fontwell victory when tackling heavy ground at Wincanton. HERE'S HERBIE hasn't won for two years but had gradually slipped to a more realistic mark and hasn't run in a grade this low for a very long time so Lucy Gardner can steer him home, despite a big weight. Kalmbeforethestorm, who gained his only victory on the track, may do best of the remainder.
