Latitude has the form in the book with a bumper victory at Aintree and is penalised on his reappearance. But GENTLE RIVER may take advantage of the weight concession as he finished runner-up over track and trip on his debut and a conditional takes 10lb off his back today. Great D'ange and King Arise are point-to-point winners debuting under Rules while the newcomers Dr Seb, Rockinastorm and Horacio Apple's are all worthy of a second glance.
