Veteran Rash Moment wouldn't be without a chance here, while Oranger and Bernie The Banker are others near the head of the weights who are worth considering. At the other end of the handicap, Bynack Mhor should improve for his run at Cartmel while You Can Of Course was sent off favourite when third at Newton Abbot last month. Washango didn't run badly back over fences here last time but we'll give another chance to GEM MILL, who has improved lately and looked ready for a step up in trip when chasing home the well-treated Themanfromfraam over 2m5f at Ffos Las last month.
