Red Rock has shown the occasional hint of promise and changed yards but Beau Fighter has been beaten so far recently that he's hard to fancy. Hawk Gold ran a couple of good races on very fast ground last summer and would be a threat if able to repeat. WHAT'S FOR TEA had a very hard race when scoring at Fontwell but at least enters the fray in good form and is only 5lb higher so gets the vote to complete the double in a weak event. The Lemonpie ran his best racesince arriving from Germany at Newton Abbot last time but Lindsay's Dream is still a maiden over timber after 14 starts.
