ELDELBAR finished runner-up over today’s trip at Catterick between modest efforts over 7f and may be the one to side with. Jeffrey Harris was placed over the minimum trip at Musselburgh last time but has plenty to prove over today’s distance judged on previous efforts. Raffle King finished in front of the disappointing favourite Lyons Lane when third over 5f at Southwell but the latter is less exposed and is not completely ruled out. Someone Exciting has won twice over 6f at Catterick this year but remains without a win on the all-weather.
