Doctor Haze made several mistakes before unseating his rider here last month. Write It Down was a big disappointment at Bangor after winning at Perth but Torrent Des Mottes has won twice here, though may need this. Fr Humphrey is 5lb lower than when successful over course and distance last season and has been hinting at a revival but THE LATE LEGEND was always travelling best at Sedgefield and Tom Weston’s improver can defy a penalty. Alexander The Grey has a terrible strike-rate but Out For Justice still has some scope.
