It could pay to stick with the proven stamina of SCOTCH BEG, who has already won a bumper at this course and she gets the nod as a value option in a tricky little race. Mischievious Max has his best days ahead of him and is respected as a live danger, while Mountain Rock is also on an upwards curve and it would be no surprise to see him involved in the shake-up.
