In depth
Verdict
FLOW CHART missed out on a hat-trick when only third on the Fibresand at Southwell last time. However, Peter Grayson's charge had landed a double over track and trip before that and can go in again back at this course. Whiskey Junction finished ahead of You'relikemefrank when third here last month and has a shout along with Slatey Hen, who had Perlachy behind when runner-up at Kempton recently. First Rebellion has the beating of Metropolitan Chief on latest running and is another to consider with the remainder harder to fancy.
