Up Your Game was placed in testing ground at Taunton last time and it was heavy going when Midnight Mustang finished second at Leicester. Recent Catterick third Danceintothelight may handle this faster ground better while Dontupsettherhythm finished closer at Southwell during the week having slid down the weights. IVANS BACK won here back in June and was placed off today's mark over these hurdles last time. Nick Kent's charge may prove good enough in this and gets the nod.
