The suspicion is that a few of these returning from breaks like
Pookie Pekan and
Sandhurst Lad will need this especially the latter over a trip that looks too short for this stamina laden type. With the Ellison team in fine form over jumps (11-20, since the start of September) their debutant
Duke Debarry must be of interest especially off a reduced mark.
Air De Rock has been slightly unfortunate over fences so far but his yard have a good record here and any market positivity should be noted.
SEBASTIAN BEACH is up 9lb for winning last time but he remains unexposed over fences (this will be just his fifth start in this sphere) and he’s taken to build on that Kelso victory.
