Verdict
MR BUTTONS could only manage fourth here last time but had finished runner-up in this lower grade over course and distance before that. He finished ahead of both Invincible Larne and Scale Force on that occasion and is taken to confirm superiority in this. The former has subsequently placed here ahead of Phoenix Star while the latter finished closer at Doncaster last time. Disruptor debuts for new connections on his first start for nearly a year and looks up against it.
