With the majority arriving out of form, RUNSWICK DAYS has a good chance of opening his account over fences. He found only Molko Jack too good at Hexham last time and a similar effort should see him go close. Forestside has been getting a bit closer having slipped down the weights while Solis made the frame at Hexham the last time he competed over fences and can race off the same mark here. Double Whammy could prove best of the rest on his earlier placed efforts.
