Little Richard ended a three year losing run when scoring at Kempton last week and doesn't make much appeal stepping up in trip off a higher mark. Golan Heights made all to win here earlier this month and the Irish raider should go well again in this company, while the maiden Storm Hawk has place claims on his return to action. A chance is taken on ACCUMULATE, who hasn't had much racing in recent years, but chased home an easy winner here last month on his reappearance. A winner over hurdles, there may be more to come from him over this longer trip.
