Justbookie Dot Com is not out of this as he's a pound lower than when scoring over C&D in September and better off with Khajaaly, who won here later in the same month. The latter was fourth behind Glenridding, who runs in the previous race, last time and should be thereabouts again. However, WOOLFALL SOVEREIGN looks to have the strongest piece of recent form when caught close home by Chookie Avon over track and trip. George Margarson's charge is fancied to hang on for victory this time in a less competitive heat.
