Mr Palmtree, who was returning from a very long absence at Market Rasen, has won off much higher marks over fences but course winner NICKELSONTHEDIME has plenty in his favour today and can defy top weight. Seymour Promise has finished second twice at Wincanton since the turn of the year and Ailes D'amour has been quite lightly raced. Turnaway won at Taunton two runs ago and Design Icon, who represents the sponsor, found only one too good at Southwell latest so can’t be ignored.
