Man Of Steel carries a penalty for last month's victory at Ffos Las and has to concede 10lb to REVERB if Jeremiah McGrath's allowance is taken into account. The latter has been placed in both starts to date, including a second over track and trip on his debut, and Nicky Henderson's charge can get off the mark in this. Nurse Ratched scored under today's jockey at Exeter last time and is another to consider along with Market Rasen runner-up Factor Fifty. Oorayvic, Ifonlywecud and Park House all showed up in the early stages of their latest outings and look likely to improve.
