Court Of Law was having only his third start over fences when making most at Warwick and a 6lb rise shouldn't prevent another good run though this is a slightly tougher. The veteran Carters Rest was in very good form on fast ground in the early part of the summer though he's yet to prove he stays this far. SENDIYM usually runs well on the track as he did when runner-up a couple of weeks ago when Roxyfet was well beaten. He can race from the same mark here and can gain another course success. The veteran Gin Cobbler goes best on faster ground when tackling this trip
