CHAMPARISI tackles this trip for the first time but there are sufficient positives to make her the selection, She has a course win to her name, relished the step up to 1m6f when scoring last time and has only been put up 3lb for that latest victory. She stayed on well on that occasion and hopefully will handle additional yardage now. There are no stamina concerns at all regarding Bodacious Name as he's twice scored over Pontefract's demanding 2m2f trip but this is his first start since November and he may need it. If he is ready, he's a danger. Gang Warfare isn't the force he once was but retains respect at this level along with Navajo Star, who was a close second to the Tuer charge at Musselburgh. However, he has yet to encounter Fibresand.
