Verdict
None of these make much appeal as, despite only finding one too good, Ofcourseiwill has been well beaten here in his last two starts. DR DUNRAVEN has finished second twice over 2m. He still has his stamina to prove over this trip but his latest third at Southwell is the best form on offer. Flight To Nowhere won at Chepstow in match but steps up in trip but Calarules was third over this trip at Taunton last time. Naasik is also worth a market check.
