Constancio slips further down the weights and is one of only two runners on the card for the McCain/Hughes combination. Manor Park looks a threat to all having won on the Flat since completing a double over timber at Newton Abbot in July while there might be more to come from Zuba, who has only run once over hurdles over a trip too far since winning his maiden here in the spring. LEROY LEROY has been very consistent on the level this year and gets the nod ahead of the returning Glory And Fortune.
