Ahoy There beat subsequent Beverley winner Illustrious Prince at Ripon but Carlisle scorer Royal Holiday looks the pick of the three recent winners. Rosy Ryan and Im Dapper Too should be thereabouts from near the foot of the weights but this is a step up in grade for Haidees Reflection. Big Storm Coming has been racing over further lately but is effective over this trip and not without a chance. We'll take a punt on TED'S BROTHER returning to form after he disappointed last time at Ayr. He's dropped to a very fair mark and has won twice here on the straight course when there has been plenty of give in the ground.
