Tweedo Paradiso, who won at Carlisle last month, might appreciate the longer trip but needs to settle better. Radio Nowhere has never fulfilled early promise but is now tried in blinkers. Stadium Of Light was pulled up at Southwell after winning a seller at Stratford and has been well beaten on the Polytrack since but Exeter third Reyes Magos may be improving and River Purple was placed on fast ground at Uttoxeter in the spring. INSIDE KNOWLEDGE is only a tentative selection as he has a modest strike-rate. But he's been running well enough in similar races lately to get involved again.
