Easy Uttoxeter winner When In Roam was engaged at that track yesterday. PAWN STAR should be competitive having been dropped a pound since his third at Southwell last month and he's just preferred to the improving Wincanton third Blue April and Cropley, who won at the Somerset course last month. Midnight Gem has only been raised 2lb for finishing second at Fontwell but Etania is probably having a pipe-opener before going back over fences.
