SUBURBAN BOY hadn't shown much before cruising home when seemingly unfancied at Southwell with any amount in hand and can defy his penalty here as he looks potentially very well treated. Alan King's lightly-raced performer looks the sort to run up a sequence during the summer months. Bee Cee Pee M took a tumble when still in contention at Ludlow latest but had shown himself to be on the upgrade with two previous successes. He handles the trip and ground and is another that looks a potential improver. Be Ashored is interesting off bottomweight with the consistent Apache Chant and Call At Midnight also worth a second look.
