Royal Native rallied to scramble home over a marathon trip at Fontwell on his reappearance and must have a chance of following up off only a pound higher. Regal Flow won at Taunton last week but is upped in grade today under a penalty while Bilidn is 2lb higher than when second on fast ground at Worcester in August.
