Kayf Adventure was easily brushed aside by veteran Grand Vision off this mark at Wincanton after being left clear at that track earlier. He looks vulnerable again and Drumlee Sunset has become expensive to follow. Bishops Road is also looking a hard ride while Calipto continues to disappoint. Dell' Arca is having a first run over fences in more than two years and the going may still be too soft for Cobra De Mai. KNOCKGRAFFON looked beaten when falling last time at Wetherby and his jumping is a bit of a concern but he’d defied mistakes to win at Musselburgh earlier and is reunited with Brian Hughes here.
