Rainy Night's five length victory at Nottingham came out of the blue and it's hard to trust the form. He's worth taking on here and WELCOME APPROACH looks a more solid option. The six-time C&D winner showed signs of a revival at Catterick last time and the return to this track should bring out the best in John Weymes' charge. Better is expected from Alamaty Express back on the Polytrack and My Love Fajer's 6lb penalty for last week's win over 6f here is negated by Nora Looby's claim. Colourbearer looks best of the rest.
