ST ERNEY finally took advantage of a tumble down the weights when scoring over track and trip earlier in the month. He remains on a winning mark despite a 5lb rise and can go in again. From The Heart also won here last month but has been well beaten either side of that success while Troed Y Melin is another course winner but struggled back here on his reappearance. I See You Well scored under a conditional at Plumpton when last in action and is effectively 7lb higher today while better is expected of Silver In Disguise back over fences having ended last season with a double. Connard is unexposed over the larger obstacles and could go well as could dual winner Favori De Sivola if ready after a break.
