Suprise Vendor was tailed off on the Flat earlier this month but was second over 2m4f here previously. Mumgos Debut beat Asuncion by seven lengths at Newcastle but Rosquero was in front and travelling well when unseating his rider at the first in the straight in that race and could beat both with a clear round. Rupert Bear is still a maiden over fences and was easily beaten by Asuncion at Newcastle last month while Duhallowcountry is proving hard to predict. OSCAR LATEEN stays further but that could be an asset today and, with Steven Fox's claim in his favour, Sandy Thomson's charge is taken to pick up the winning thread again.
