Voice Mail enjoys it here and can go in again, with Itcanbedone Again, Beneking, Danzare and Monmouthshire others considered. Drawback saw off Beneking at Lingfield over 7f last time, and they meet again on the same terms, but the top weight has never appeared to get further than a mile and may be found wanting. Beneking is perhaps more likely of that pair to get home and may win that particular argument. Distance winner Danzare showed a return to form at Yarmouth last time and if overcoming a car park draw can go well again, while Monmouthshire - a previous c&d winner - is out of sorts and best watched at present. Voice Mail has enjoyed five out of six career wins here, one of which came over this trip. His recent form has not been too bad, excluding his latest effort, and as he reserves his best for here we will take a chance with him in the finale.
