BESTIARIUS has a poor strike-rate but did win at Newcastle in the spring and was running well at the start of summer off similar marks so should give supporters a run for their money again. Coup De Gold went close at Cartmel in August but Dan Gun and Old Jewry were well beaten at Perth last month. That's Your Lottie produced an improved effort here last time, however, and Rickety Gate would have a chance on the pick of his form.
