Cadeau Du Bresil has been raised 8lb after scoring at Plumpton but won off a higher mark last year and is preferred to Danboru, who found one too good again at Taunton last month. Rollerball Rocco beat Carlo Rocks when winning at Uttoxeter in December and makes a quick reappearance after going close at Southwell earlier in the week but Oneida Tribe disappointed at Haydock just three days ago. Jennie Candish has won two of the three renewals of this including last year with SPIRIT OF HALE. The latter is back on a similar mark today and preferred to stablemate Tommy The Rascal if back to his best with a tongue-tie added for the first time.
