A wide-open handicap but the three-year-old C Note is sure to be popular with Ryan Moore taking over the reins. Lightly-raced, he arrives off the back of a Leicester win though drops back a furlong for this under a penalty. Michael Dods runs three and Fendale, Ocean Sheridan and Get Knotted are all consistent sorts. Blaine came right back to form at Haydock last week and the handicapper has certainly given a chance to George Bowen. Poyle Vinnie is another who is very well treated at present while Johnny Barnes ran better than expected in the Ayr Gold Cup. NEW BIDDER has already gone close over course and distance this year and quickened smartly to beat recent York winner Intisaab at the Curragh last month - a similar effort here would put him right in the firing-line.
