Looks Like Power was second earlier this month at Chepstow but both victories to date have been achieved over 2m at Ffos Las. The four-year-old Siruh Du Lac has gone up 6lb for winning at Bangor though remains unexposed but Llancillo Lord was tailed off on his first run for a new yard and chasing debut here. Midnight Request looks harshly treated back over fences and Only Gorgeous has shown nothing since returning from a break, though is a course and distance winner like TRIPLE CHIEF. The latter has a good record here and he kept on strongly under Bryony Frost to score recently at Taunton.
