Fuse Wire is a course and distance winner and had Bernisdale behind when second to Sir Dylan at Stratford last week. He makes more appeal than Honourable Exit, second here on his latest start. Hija could run well at a price under Alice Mills and there are also each-way possibilities about Replacement Plan. BADILOU appears something of a specialist at this intermediate trip and can recoup losses incurred when a beaten favourite at Wincanton earlier in the month as Rior faces no easy task under a big weight.
