With the yard having made something of a habit of winning this race this decade,
NEVER UP, who has won twice before over C&D and shaped as though the run last time would put him spot on for this, is expected to open his account for this term. Top weight
Pookie Pekan unseated at halfway at Kelso on Saturday when fancied so is a danger if none the worse for those exertions, while
Le Frank won here last time over two miles but might be vulnerable off his new mark at this trip on this occasion.
