Take A Break was just in front when falling at Market Rasen but that may have left its mark. Grams And Ounces made all at Towcester two runs ago but appears to have two ways of running. Easier ground would be a worry for the four-year-old Retro Valley but Zarawi isn't out of this on his best form. Libeccio stayed on late over 2m3f at Fontwell on his belated return but the drop in distance might not help. JESTER JET may also need further but she was a little keen last time at Chepstow and has been dropped a couple of pounds since so must have decent claims.
