Lord Lescribaa scored over track and trip before being pulled-up behind Western King back here last time. Both are upped in class for this and Strumble Head is preferred on his recent victory at Market Rasen. Qianshan Leader is not badly treated at the weights if fully primed on his return to action but Qulinton is 11lb higher than when finishing second here in July. CAPTAIN KELLY has taken well to chasing and won at Worcester before finding one too good at the same track last month. He gets the nod with further progress expected from Paul Nicholl's charge.
