Radmores Revenge usually travels strongly in his races but he doesn't find a great deal off the bridle and is still 15lb higher than when last successful. Princely Player has been well below par lately but Araldur has done well back over hurdles this season, though has gone up a further 3lb since finishing second at Sandown. Bravo Bravo has won twice over track and trip this term but is another climbing the weights and he lacks the scope of WHISKY YANKEE. Paul Nicholls' novice has had the just the two starts over timber and was still a little green when scoring at Ffos Las. He could be another money-spinner for owner Dai Walters. Shammick Boy is lightly-raced for his age but looks high enough in the handicap at present.
