Teruntum Star won over track and trip before scoring at York in October. He beat Flying Pursuit, Al Qahwa, Nameitwhatyoulike and Pipers Note on that occasion but is 6lb higher today. The latter won this contest in 2015 and was runner-up on the all-weather recently. MOBSTA was well beaten behind Flying Pursuit here last year but tumbled down the weights subsequently. He returned to winning ways at Windsor on his latest start and another bold bid is expected from Mick Channon’s charge. Danielsflyer also makes plenty of appeal at this level on his win at Newmarket last year.
