Muatadel has a good course record and drops back in grade here. He looks set to go well in his bid to repeat last year's success in this race.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

(9.05 Doncaster)

A step up in trip brought about an improved performance when runner-up at Windsor earlier this month and Roger Charlton's filly may break her duck.

Longshot: Dave Revers

Kyllukey (4.10 Chepstow)

Not won for two years but is running from a basement handicap rating now, 23lb below his last winning mark. He could cause a shock at a big price.

The Jessica Harrington-trained five-year-old produced her best effort to date when beaten half a length at Roscommon nine days ago. The daughter of Yeats can go one better here and gets the vote to score under Mark Walsh.
