Bestiarius has a shout on last month’s third at Hexham and makes more appeal than Leopolds Rock, who ran well for fourth at Sedgefield last time. Ultra Violet placed in maiden company recently and can figure while Annies Prayer finished runner-up in maiden hurdle at Bangor back in May. But GAMESTERS ICON is preferred dropping down in class with a recent comeback run at Hexham under his belt and a conditional taking 7lb off his back.
