Musselburgh runner-up Gangway disappointed at Ffos Las last time while Adaayinourlife went close over 7f here before a moderate effort at Wolverhampton. It was soft going when Greatness Awaits opened his account with a victory at Chepstow and he’s penalised 6lb while Be Lucky My Son may improve for this extra distance. But breeding suggests BUXTED REEL will also appreciate today’s longer trip and he gets a speculative vote with William Buick’s presence taking the eye.
