Diamond Run had Pytheas behind when scoring at Yarmouth last time and is not out of this off a 3lb higher mark and, having looked in the handicapper's grip recently, Jonnie Skull popped-up again over C&D recently. Drive Home has claims if forgiven his latest poor effort at Chepstow, but the vote goes to ANNES ROCKET. He hasn't won since a C&D victory nearly a year ago, but has been running well in tougher races of late and had a below par Seneschal well behind at Kempton last time.
