The bottom trio are all course and distance winners. Global Domination just failed to catch Skint at Huntingdon and can race from the same mark. HERESMYNUMBER did his best to throw away victory here last month but managed to hang on after making a mess of the last. He has a bit more to do but this should be within his capabilities. Little Windmill won here on New Year's Day but was beaten a very long way into second over a longer trip at Plumpton last time. Royals And Rebels went up 11lb for winning at Plumpton last May and is only gradually dropping to a more suitable mark but winning point-to-pointer and hurdler Ckalco Des Loges hasn't shown much aptitude for jumping regulation fences.
