MOUNT HAVEN will have gone into a few notebooks after spread-eagling the opposition on his debut under Rules at Fontwell. He may be good enough to defy his penalty but there are a few promising recruits from the point-to-point circuit facing him here. Masterplan can only improve on a narrow victory at Ballybunion in May while Glenwood Star could be useful. A Good Skin and Heroes And Ghosts should also have a future. Vieux Lille may need the experience but is also worth monitoring.
