Amber Cloud won on her debut at Fontwell in September and had no chance in a Listed contest at Aintree last month. She has a penalty to carry here, however, and is worth opposing with INCH ROVER. Charlie Longsdon's ex-pointer found only Whisky Yankee too good on his debut under Rules at Stratford and will know more today. Harris, Moulin Tour and Next Sensation are all winners between the flags while Brendan Powell's newcomer Generous John is worth a second look with McCoy taking the reins.
