Sur La Mer does look harshly treated off topweight on what he's achieved and BEDOUIN BAY, a fine servant to Johnny Farrelly over the past ten months or so, looks a better option after being left on a mark of 112 after his winning run came to an end when a decent third at Southwell. He'll still be competitive off that rating, acts on any ground and goes really well for amateur pilot Robert Hawker. Provincial Pride has gone well on all three starts since joining Mike Hammond from the Mangans in Ireland and he's also expected to remain a player despite being raised to a career-high mark. My Lad Percy and Bold Raider are also in with a shout.
