Recent runner-up Isntshesomething was just ahead of Al's Memory and Kafoo when the latter trio finished in heap here.

SWOT hasn’t won for some time but is getting closer as he slides further down the weights. It could be his turn today having been beaten less than a length when placed at Salisbury last month.
