SHERIFF HUTTON sports a pair of blinkers for the first time and could be good enough to follow up a recent victory between the flags back under Rules. Island Life has to be feared having won easily at Warwick 10 days ago while the once-useful Sunday City will appreciate the drop in distance having finished third over 3m at Ffos Las last month. Baren De Doc is a consistent sort in point-to-points, as is Tallow Bridge, while Penyfan Dawn would have place claims on his best form but the others are likely to struggle.
